1 dead, 1 hurt in subway hits
TWO PEOPLE were struck by Brooklyn trains — one fatally — in separate incidents Friday.
A 37-year-old woman was hit by an oncoming F train at the Avenue X station in Sheepshead Bay about 2:15 p.m., police said. She was walking between cars before she fell on the tracks. She died at the scene.
The MTA temporarily halted trains between Kings Highway and Coney Island in both directions as police investigated.
Earlier in the day and about 4 miles away, a 29-year-old man jumped in front of a Manhattanbound N train at the Eighth Ave. station in Sunset Park, police said.
Medics rushed him to Maimonides Medical Center after he made the leap around 9 a.m. He is in critical condition but expected to survive, officials said.
