NYC subway shooting witness recalls harrowing ‘life or death’ attack, thought it might have been her ‘final moments’
NY Post
One straphanger caught up in this week’s horrifying shooting on a packed A-train said she thought it might have been her “final moments.”
Alanie Aucoin-Jackson, 30, was heading to work when she overheard a loud argument inside the subway car.
“And then, the train approaches Hoyt and the doors finally open and I immediately hear gunshots,” Aucoin-Jackson told NewsNation’s Ashleigh Banfield.
“And in that moment, it just felt like it was life or death, and everybody just started to run and stampede and the first thing I could think of was to immediately get on the subway floor and hide underneath the seats because there’s too many people.”
Aucoin-Jackson, who lives in Brownsville, said she immediately thought the worst.
“At this point, I had no idea whether or not it was someone in a mass shooting or if it was a personal attack on him,” she said.
