NEW YORK (WCBS)-New York Police have arrested a woman who is seen on video allegedly pushing a subway rider into an oncoming train on Monday.
The incident was captured on a surveillance camera and led to the arrest of 29-year-old Anthonia Egegbara on Tuesday.
She is charged with attempted murder.
Police said they found her on Tuesday inside the same Times Square station where the day earlier she allegedly pushed a 42-year-old woman into a moving train.
The video shows the suspect sitting on a platform bench. Then, as the train comes into view, she suddenly rushes over and appears to slam into an unsuspecting woman from behind, ramming her into a section of the train just out of camera range.
One of her shoes can be seen flying and landing on the platform.
Egegbara said nothing as she was led in handcuffs to a police vehicle.
However, the victim Lenny Javier spoke exclusively to WCBS from her hospital bed.
“I never thought it would happen to me,” Javier said.
Javier’s arm is broken, and her legs and face were injured in the incident.
“My face is swollen. I have a broken nose, a fractured chin,” she said.
Transit crime overall is down just over 15% compared to last year. However, in the last 28 days, it’s gone up a little more than 43%.
“Someone needs to take responsibility for this, because it can’t be happening. Too many cases,” Javier said.
Those pushing for increased security underground got a response from Mayor Bill de Blasio, who said the enforcement is best coming from the kinds of cops who know the subway system best.
“I would caution against other forces coming in, because the environment here is very different than what state police or national guard are trained for,”de Blasio said.

“”I would caution against other forces coming in, because the environment here is very different than what state police or national guard are trained for,”de Blasio said.””
Oh! my goodness - what a stupid statement. I guess law enforcement in NYC is a lot different than it is anywhere else. Well, it appears to be so.
This jerk is going to run for NY governor?
there is nothing ’alleged’ about the push, what is alleged is the perp of the crime.
Be on the lookout....
well at least the animal didnt push him in front of the train... she still deserves to be put up against a wall and shot dead...
How do you get “allegedly” out of “recorded on security camera”
Her.
Victim is female.
beat me to it!!
Isnt this woman symbolic of the whole Democrat party? Think about it.
Her motive is a complete mystery. Not one bit of a hint at why she would do such a thing. Nope, we don’t know why she would do that, Chet. It certainly wasn’t hate in her ice-cold heart.
They let the attacker out of jail, no-bail, for a separate assault in July, attacking a staff person at the Far Rockaway homeless shelter, putting that victim in the hospital with a black eye, broken nose and knocked out teeth.
Two strikes of vicious violence should dictate at least a few years of locked ward thorazine therapy
My thoughts exactly. She may not even spend one night in jail.
Not the first time she’s tried doing this from other reports. Some saying she’s mental of course.
