A man holding his 5-year-old daughter jumped onto subway tracks in the Bronx during Monday's morning rush, killing himself but thankfully only leaving the child with minor injuries, police said.
The man had the girl cradled in one arm when he jumped in front of the train as it rounded a curve and slowed at the Kingsbridge Road station just before 8 a.m., police said. The man, identified as Fernando Balbuena, was killed by the Manhattan-bound train — but the girl lived, getting trapped underneath.
With the help of two strangers, the little girl crawled her way to safety. One of the good Samaritans said the girl was calling out for her father the whole time.
"Papa, Papa, Papa, that's it. She didn't say anything else," said Antonio Love, who went down onto the tracks with another man to help the child.
She was rushed to the hospital afterward, but after only minor injuries were found the girl was brought home by her godfather to her mother, who expressed gratitude to those who helped her daughter.
"My baby is in perfect condition, thank God ... to the angels who protected her," Niurka Caraballo said in Spanish hours after the ordeal.

That depends entirely on what your definition of ‘American’ is.
Praise and Thanks be to God!
From your link it says God doesn’t save children from injury or death.
We don’t know GOD’S ultimate plan. Everything that happens in this world, good or bad, will one day fit together for GOD’S good.
When tragedy strikes, we may blame GOD and ask, “WHY?” But it is GOD Who is good all the time. Satan comes to seek, kill, and destroy.
GOD Promises to see us through the most difficult of circumstances, and, if we allow Him, will heal our wounded hearts and broken lives.
” and, if we allow Him,”
My sister never had that opportunity.
I was referring to you.
Yes, she is.
“Satan comes to seek, kill, and destroy.”
Why did God allow Satan destroy my sister?
We don't know. Only GOD knows. We accept by faith that He will turn what was meant for evil into good. GOD never promised that we would never go through tragedies and hard times. He promised He would see us through. He gives us survivors peace, strength, and courage to go on, as well as, an ability to help others who suffer from similar circumstances.
