For the second time this month, a man is dead after being pushed in front of a subway train in New York.

The NYPD said a woman was caught on surveillance cameras, running from a subway platform after the man fell on the tracks and was hit by an on-coming train.

Witnesses said she was the one who walked up to the man and simply shoved him from the platform.

Police are still looking for her this morning.

Several trains were also stopped on the tracks as police investigated, tying up the late night commute.

Police do not know if the two knew each other and names have not been released yet.

You may recall, on Dec. 8, a 58-year-old man was pushed in front of a train in Times Square by a homeless man.
