An 18-year-old man has been arrested for the fatal shooting of a Queens teenager on the A train in Far Rockaway, the NYPD said.
Keyondre Russell was nabbed Saturday in the killing of 15-year-old Jayjon Burnett, police said.
Burnett was shot in the chest after an argument broke out on the train between two groups of young people, authorities said.
A good Samaritan pulled Burnett off the train after it arrived at the Far Rockaway-Mott Ave. station. The mortally wounded teen was pronounced dead at Cohen’s Children’s Medical Center.
Burnett’s was the ninth subway killing so far this year, among them the May slaying of Goldman Sachs employee Daniel Enriquez, who was shot and killed in a random attack on the Q train, and the fatal stabbings of Tommy Bailey, 43, and Charles Moore, 38.
