A MAN has beheaded a woman then jumped in front of a moving train in New York City in an apparent murder-suicide.
A man in his 30s is believed to have cut off the head of a woman in her 60s before jumping in front of an eastbound Long Island Rail Road train on Tuesday night, NBC 4 New York reports.
Investigators believe that the woman may be the mother of the man.
Her body was found outside an apartment complex in Farmingdale, Long Island, east of Manhattan, with the head severed. Nassau County police have cordoned off a number of blocks on Secatogue Ave as they investigate the incident and multiple sheets have been placed over the body, CBS 2 reports.
The man’s body was found about 800m away, after the train hit him east of Bethpage railway station, police said.
Officials said that the incident appeared to be related to domestic violence, not terrorism.
The Long Island Rail Road line was shut down and passengers were transferred to another train, before being moved onto buses at another station.
The names of the victims have not been released.
