Girl Hit, Killed by 6 Train at 77th Street

Today’s parade of city-nightmares-turned-real continues: A girl playing around with her friends at the 77th Street 6 train station somehow ended up on the tracks. Eyewitness accounts differ on whether she was pushed or jumped, but the train was unable to stop, and she was crushed to death. Police are currently investigating. [City Room/NYT]
