Woman, 74, dies after being pushed in front of BART train 

If he was in prison for his dozens of previous crimes, that lovely woman would still be alive. We need justice reform that protects future victims, not the criminals.

SO WHY IS THIS GUY WALKING THE STREETS, should be in JAIL PERMANENTLY

She's beautiful. She doesn't look close to 74. This is so awful!🤬🤬

Condolences to the woman's family and friends.

This guy should not be out in the first place.

She was murdered! How cold blooded!

I have not rode on BART for a long time and this scares me. How can anyone be so evil?

I am sorry , San Francisco is just too dangerous to commute. The suspect will be released in the next few weeks due to mental state. It is common

Vote wisely! As reported, this guy had committed many crimes prior to this incident!

"A long criminal history" Not surprised. A life of crime without consequences. Such is the state of our society. RIP

The guy who did it is a known crazy. He shouldn't have been walking free in the first place. He's definitely going to a mental institution. There's no way the guy fit for trial

She sounds like a strong woman who wasn't going to let anything stop her. I am very sorry to her family and friends.

Very interesting that you talk about her ethnicity by divulging where she came from, but you don’t mention the ethnicity of the suspect. Three guesses as to why

In Japan and even China, There is a barrier on the edge of the elevated train platform that protects those who are on the platform from falling on the tracks. Not so in America.

I was a BART rider for many years. I witnessed people trying to shove riders onto the tracks several times over the years, and even helped rescue a man who someone pushed on the tracks. BART cops do not patrol the stations. BART cops don't even answer calls when you report crimes. I gave up riding BART after I was beaten for trying to stop some guys from molesting a frightened young woman and took the ferry from Oakland to San Francisco, instead. Tripled my commute time but at least I was safe. I advise that no one should ride BART if they can possibly avoid it. If you can't, do not ride after dark. Tourists should NEVER ride BART. Do not stand near the platform's edge and do NOT stand facing the tracks. Take your headphones off and look up from your phone. BART cops will NOT protect you and they won't even apprehend most suspects. BART cops basically "quiet quit" after BART cop Johannes Mehserle was convicted of killing Oscar Grant in 2009. I once called BART cops when some thugs blocked all exits from the 12th Street station and demanded a "toll" from riders. The dispatcher refused to send anyone, but she did chuckle and say "You can always do a citizen's arrest." Then she hung up. I called the Oakland PD and they told me to call the BART cops. I got on the train and went to the next station and walked home from there.

Why wasn’t he in an institution?! Why after all he’s done he was out walking around and now she’s dead because of it!

Sue the city for neglect

No photo of the perpetrator?

Getting pushed in front of train is a horrific tragedy I don’t wish upon another…My Deepest Condolences.

The media also need to be held both legally and financially accountable for their roles in helping create this violent crime epidemic.

You all created this movement of violence and disorder. T This lady was somebodies mother friend significant other. This is all bs.

This is a horribly tragic story but did any of you catch the person to the right hop the turnstile towards the end of the report. It's straight madness out here.

ALWAYS the same victim/perpetrator dynamics.

I learned years ago! Never stand near the edge! Of the platform!

Enforce fares and we wouldn’t have half these issues.

Prayers for the family. 😢

Where is his picture?

R.I.P. 💔

I finally got a better job just outside the city and no longer needed to relay on transit. Thank god. The city is a hell hole these days.

She was beautiful ❤️ such a tragedy. 😢

So sad what’s happening in San Francisco. The economy, crime and the many companies leaving. But this particular incident is horrific.

Societal collapse is a global issue.

How’s that “going light on crime” working for you all in San Francisco?

What do we know about the murderer? A photo of the attacker?

So sad 😢

She was 74?! OMG.

2:01 “Can’t recall an incident….” maybe on BART, but nation wide, incidences like this are WAY up, especially in NYC.

So sad. I see a lot of commuters stand close to the marked boarding zones eager to board and hopefully get a seat, but for years I have moved as far from the tracks as possible when trains are inbound for this very reason. Too much mental illness present around BART to take a chance.

Very sad. Have to wonder if it was a hate crime.

No suprised at all. There's no compassion anymore. 🖤

Wickedness evil.

No mug shot? Odd.

i don't understand why they don't erect barriers to prevent people from falling in. they a put auto open gates when the train arrives. this is not rocket science.

Since I have been riding Bart lately I have seen no police officers on the trains and none in any of the stations that I have been to. So far I have not had any issues on Bart where I would need the police.

with many criminal charges yet still walking on the streets?? our justice system is f@cking nuts!!! Now look at what happened, another crime commited by the same guy who thinks that his life only matters.

Very sad. Let perpetual light shine upon her. May she rest in peace. Amen.

What a pretty lady. So senseless. I will never understand how people come to the decisions that they make.

Nakikiramay po kame🇵🇭🙏

Prayers and condolences to family members and friends Horrible uncomprehensible human behavior That's why I stand against the wall until the train arrives and doors open This way I can keep aware of my surroundings I don't have to worry about what's going on behind me sad incident said you beings demons

Condolences, hi,from Chicago South Side

Omg, that is horrific. 😢.

This would traumatize me for life. Poor woman. 😢

This is also happening in NYC Subways. Why don't they put rails to keep people from getting shoved onto the tracks ... or even to prevent people from accidentally falling. By law in many states, if you build a deck, you have to build a rail to keep people from falling off the edge.

Absolutely heart wrenching.

When does it become a hate crime?

OMG. I’m so saddened by this. Imagine the terror she through when pushed 😢😢😢 Deeply saddened.

People think bart is safe because they are not Asian

Rest in peace, beautiful, kind hearted lady. 🤍

Rest in joyful peace in Heaven ❤ God help all us left behind still

This is disgusting, why did he do this? Because he felt like it? I have heard many stories like this, these people need to be locked up for life, they are sick, they have no place in society. That woman did nothing to deserve this, but mind her own business. Absolutely horrible.

They need fencing up around the boarding areas,something that openes up after the train has stopped.cause this stupidness isnt going to be stopped by law enforcement it seems

This is so heartbreaking. Praying for her family.

Be careful and don't stand in a spot that you could be pushed. Never let anybody stand in back of you. Don't trust anybody.

The kindly San Franciscans know very well that Trevor Belmont just needs more love from the community.... not punishment. That's why they choose the kind hearted District Attorneys that they elect.

where is the picture of the suspect?

This is horrible. I've seen a lot of the crazies on BART myself. So I ask, why are we allowing the homeless to live on BART trains? Why are we letting highly disturbed mentally ill people ride the train? Why are people using/smoking hard drugs on the BART trains? Why is BART so relaxed about paying fares? BART would get a lot more ridership from the productive members of society if these trains were ACTUALLY safe. Noting will ever change.

There's been so many of these stories you'd think they'd do something about it now

Horrific. 🙏Condolences to her family & friends

I feel for this woman, but BART has become a massive no-go zone. In fact, pretty much the whole city of SF is a dumpster fire of crime, drugs, homelessness, and literal clinical insanity. 😭

How many more innocent people have to suffer? How many?

..cruel ..r.i.p

Condolences to the family of this poor woman. This guy should not (a) be roaming free, from all his previous history, and (b) should NOT have been inside the BART station. Enough, not one more!

Sad

So very sorry dear lady thoughts and prayers to all impacted rip 🙏❤️😞

That's so very sad.

Officer stating that this is the first crime of that type. It's not unfortunately. The catch and release method they are using with these criminals is insane.

This is horrid .. she did not deserve this , I am not getting close to sketchy people or near in the yellow line anymore. such a loss.❤️ anything after 10-12:30 late night in SF Bart stations it’s a risk & not safe at all.!

Tell us about the murderer!!!!

This was so sad news about our fellow Filipino people died with no reason this is injustice.

I would not go to San Francisco (or anywhere else in California) if they gave me the entire $hith0le when I got there.

OMG! 😮😢

Oh my god this is just ridiculous 😢

BART needs to install platform screen doors like they do in Singapore.

Everyone in local government and law enforcement should have to take public transportation, nothing will change otherwise.

That is so sad💐😢🙏🏻🙏🏻

How unfortunate. :(

Very sad, RIP!

Typical San Francisco but everyone pokes fun of Florida.

This is horrible. RIP.

Wow! So sad I heard so many of these cases happening in New York, even during the day busy rush hour times. Some person runs up and pushes an innocent person waiting to catch a ride.

How sad, how sick!!!!

This is unfortunate 😢

Horrific!

🚨SANCTUARY CITY ✊🏾✊🏾

I’m a native New Yorker who lived in San Francisco 1992-95 and I believe San Francisco was more dangerous than New York. I also remember Oakland was pretty dangerous too.

Bart has NOT been safe after 8PM. This is so tragic.

The cops speaks as if the first casualty of the Year means nothing

Keep voting blue.....

They should have barriers or fences where train goes through, it really is stupid not to!

Bart is so dangerous
