On Monday, a 30-year-old black man was killed in a struggle on a New York City subway train after he reportedly threatened and intimidated other passengers.
Jordan Neely, a homeless man with a lengthy criminal record, had begun yelling and pacing around on an F train in Manhattan. One witness, Juan Alberto Vasquez, reported that Neely yelled “I want food,” “I’m not taking no for an answer,” “I’m ready to go back to jail,” and “I’ll hurt anyone on this train.”
