A migrant from Guatemala was arrested on Sunday on allegations of lighting a sleeping woman on fire on a New York subway.
The Gateway Pundit reported earlier that the woman was asleep on the train as she was lit on fire by the suspect at the Coney Island-Stillwell Avenue subway station around 7:30 a.m. on Sunday.
According to police sources who spoke with The New York Post, a member of the public identified the suspected killer as he rode on a train at 34th Street in Manhattan.
Meanwhile, city transportation authority security chief Michael Kemper said at a news conference Sunday that a “person of interest is in custody.”
“There must be strong, swift consequences on this person,” Kemper said. “There is no room in civilized society for people like him to be walking around.”
He is not yet understood to have been charged with a crime.
The migrant is believed to have crossed the border back in 2018, although it is unclear whether he entered illegally.
Shocking footage circulating across social media showed a man lighting the sleeping woman on fire at around 7.30am on Sunday morning, watching her burn to death in the process.
New York Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch said that the man “calmly walked up to the victim and used what we believe to be a lighter to ignite the victim’s clothing.”
Investigators who turned up at the scene immediately declared the woman as deceased. Her body was surrounded by liquor bottles, although it unclear whether they played any role in their death.
Authorities eventually removed the woman via a body bag and wheeled it outside.
The victim has not yet been formally identified.
