Woman dies after hijab, hair get tangled in Montreal escalator

MONTREAL — A woman in her 30s is dead after her headscarf and hair became caught in a subway-station escalator.

A bystander found the woman lying at the base of the escalator at Fabre metro station in east-end Montreal around 9:15 a.m.

He alerted transit workers, who called police.

When first responders arrived, the woman was unresponsive.

"We tried to perform resuscitation on site, but we weren't able to save her," paramedic Bob Lamle told QMI Agency.

The exact circumstances of the woman's death weren't immediately clear, but Montreal police spokesman Jean-Pierre Brabant said it appeared "her headscarf and her hair got stuck in the escalator."

"Was she strangled by her scarf or was she the victim of an illness before falling? It's too early to say," Brabant added.

Police shut down the metro station for the investigation

Waiting for the tasteless jokes... and I didn’t have to wait long.

SERIOUSLY, a woman is DEAD. Just because the symbols that she was forced to wear as a member of the Religion of Peace were the cause of it doesn’t change the fact that she’s DEAD.

Freepers can be very cruel. I assume you’d say the same thing about a nun’s habit or a Jew’s prayer shawl.

I’m not sure what to make of the comments. Most muslim women are victims of Islam, not perpetrators, IMO.

The same could have happened with a cold weather or fashion scarf.

My dog Jamie died last week - a great rotweiler/lab cross, ten years old.

This ROPer is no more dead than my dog; I’m sure her people miss her.

I’ve moved on.
