Deranged Man Kills Random NYC Subway Rider in Broad Daylight

A deranged gunman shot and killed a 48-year-old Goldman Sachs employee “without provocation” on Sunday while the straphanger was riding a Manhattan subway train to brunch, cops said.

The shooter, who was still on the loose Sunday evening, was seen pacing back and forth in the last car of the northbound Q train around 11:42 a.m. before he pulled out a gun and opened fire on the unsuspecting victim, police and sources said.

“Completely random,” one police source said.

The victim, identified as Daniel Enriquez, was rushed to Bellevue Hospital, where he was later pronounced dead, police said.

“According to witnesses, the suspect was walking back and forth in the same train car and, without provocation, pulled out a gun and fired at the victim at close range as the trains [were] crossing the Manhattan Bridge,” NYPD Chief of Department Kenneth Corey said at a briefing.

When the train pulled into the Canal Street station, the gunman — described as a dark-skinned heavyset man with a beard — fled the station by running up to Centre Street, Corey said.

The suspect was wearing a gray hoodie that said “Aeropostale” on it, according to sources.

The shooter and the victim didn’t know each other, according to Corey. No one else on the train was injured.
