(Newser) – Four men were killed in four separate New York City subway accidents in a single 24-hour period over the weekend. Two of the men were stuck by trains in Manhattan and Brooklyn, and a third was killed when he was crushed between a train and the platform in the Village, reports the New York Post. Another man was found dead on a elevated station platform in Queens. Police don't suspect criminal activity in any of the deaths.

all this happened in one day in NYC? The first two struck down by large passenger vehicles, the third crushed into by another one, and the fourth mysteriously downed in the wide open. But so much for reminiscing 911. What's this story about?
