A New York banker was shot and killed on a subway train Sunday morning in what appeared to be a random shooting.
Police identified the victim as Daniel Enriquez, 48, who worked at Goldman Sachs in its research division, WNBC reported.
Witnesses told police that the suspect paced back and forth on the train for a few minutes shortly before noon and then pulled out a gun and shot Enriquez in the chest “without provocation.”
The witnesses said the two had no prior contact while they were on the train.
