15th Subway Victim this Year [semi-satire]

In New York City the total number of individuals pushed onto subway tracks this year has reached 15. The victim in the most recent incident is a 70-year-old woman. Career criminal Zaki Smith was arrested for felony assault. Smith has 14 previous arrests and was on parole after serving four years in Sing Sing prison for a prior felony assault.

Saritha Komatireddy, a Republican candidate for New York State Attorney General, said that "this is the fifteenth time someone was pushed onto the subway tracks this year. A 70-year-old woman was just shoved by a stranger who walked up behind her at a station in Midtown Manhattan. New Yorkers are sick and tired of hearing the same story over and over again: a violent repeat offender commits a crime, is released back onto our streets, ignores the justice system, and then goes on to hurt someone else."

Current State Attorney General Letitia James called Komatireddy's remarks "unnecessarily alarmist. Considering that seven million people live in New York City, 15 victims is a trivial number. The latest person pushed onto the tracks was rescued by others before she was killed by an arriving train. So, it's kind of a 'no harm, no foul' situation as far as I'm concerned and an insufficient reason for unseating the much more experienced incumbent."

NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani pointed out that "the woman pushed onto the tracks wasn't wearing a hijab or even covering her hair with a scarf. Her immodesty may have contributed to inciting Mr. Smith to push her. I think that the fact that war criminal Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has been allowed to walk freely in our city is far more concerning."
