A father jumped in front of an oncoming No. 4 train in the Bronx with his 5-year-old daughter Monday morning in a suicide attempt, killing himself and severely injuring the child, police said.
The incident happened around 8 a.m. at the Kingsbridge Road station, authorities said.
The 45-year-old man, whose identity was not immediately released, leaped in front of a southbound No. 4 train with his daughter in his arms before horrified straphangers.
Emergency responders pronounced the man dead at the scene, while his daughter was rushed to Jacobi Medical Center with severe, but non-life threatening, injuries.
Two Good Samaritans suffered minor injuries when they tried to help the little girl after the train had come to a stop, police said.
