Another "Walker" Killed in the Off-Hours

QUEENS — A man was found dead after being hit by an A train in the Rockaways on Wednesday night, police said.

The man, whose identity wasn't immediately released, was on the tracks when a northbound A train struck him near Rockaway Freeway and Beach 25th Street, about 11 p.m., an NYPD spokesman said Thursday morning.

He was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.

Investigators don't suspect his death involved any criminality, they said.

Begin sarcasm.

Psychiatrists of the world, please pay attention!

For some unknown reason, people who use the New York subway system during off-hours (such as 11 PM in Rockaway) do utterly crazy things. They decide to take off their shoes and  "stroll"  barefooted or to "surf" on the roof  of a moving train or "snooze" down there on the tracks.

Please, psychiatrists, help our dedicated civil servants to understand this strange malady.

End sarcasm
