October 4, 2025Two Girls – 13 and 15 Years Old Died Subway Surfing in Brooklyn
Around 3:00 am this morning, police found two girls dead on the top of a J train. One girl was 12 years old; the other was 15. The girls were believed to be subway surfing. Info:
A GoFundMe was set up for one of the girls:
https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-us-honor-zemfira-mukhtarovs-memory
This is the story everyone politician in Brooklyn and NYC should be talking about, but very few will mention it. Safety is not an issue for most politicians.
These advertisements are not working. Who thought they would?
This is solvable if they put sensors on top of the train and give access to the trainmaster.
