A woman was struck and killed by a 7 train at the 103rd Street-Corona Plaza subway station in an apparent suicide on Sunday afternoon.
Police from the 115th Precinct in Jackson Heights and Transit District 20 responded to a 911 call of a woman trapped beneath the train at 4 p.m. and had power shut down in both directions as first responders worked to extricate the 39-year-old woman, who had severe trauma.
Traffic was closed down in both directions on Roosevelt Avenue as FDNY units arrived at the location and police worked crowd control.
EMS removed her from the tracks and rushed her to Elmhurst Hospital where she was subsequently pronounced dead, an NYPD spokesman said Monday.
Further investigation determined that the operator of the Manhattan-bound 7 train saw the woman jump in
