Woman pushed to her death at Times Square subway station

A deranged man shoved an Asian woman to her death in front of an oncoming subway train Saturday morning in Times Square, police and sources told The Post.

The horrifying episode unfolded at around 9:40 a.m. when the unidentified woman was struck by a southbound R train at the Times Square N/Q/R line on West 42nd Street and Broadway, an NYPD spokeswoman said.

The attack appeared random, sources said.

“A person of interest has been taken into custody,” the department spokeswoman said.
