NYC Man Fatally Dragged To Death After His Bag Became Trapped In Train Doors!

Noir Nation, Authorities have officially identified a 57 year old man who was dragged to death after his bag was trapped in a train’s doors!

Yaw Boahene is said to had exited an A train at a crowded Utica Avenue station in Brooklyn on Monday September 28th around rush hour.

According to ABC News, shortly after Yaw entered the platform, his bag was caught in the train’s doors

Authorities state Yaw was dragged the distance of nearly seven train car doors, traveling all the way to the end of the station’s wall.

Further details indicate that Yaw had been carrying a shopping bag in one hand and a cane in the other. Investigators say Yaw’s bag was caught in the door as the train began to pull away.

Obtained video footage from the incident shows that it is unclear whether he was struggling to remove the bag from his wrist, as he is seen pulling the bag before he was dragged to the platform and pulled backwards. Sadly, Yaw’s body ultimately stumbled onto the train tracks.

“Conductors are supposed to look out and make sure that people aren’t in this situation. That’s the whole thing, they do a little thumbs up, that’s what supposed to happen. And that didn’t happen,” said a witness to the horrific incident.

“There was no one to turn to. And we know the police, they can come as quickly as they can, but the train was already at Nostrand Avenue at that point, like what, like what help is that going to be?”

As officials state the incident appears to have been accidental, the entire case remains under an active investigation.
