Sunday morning a man died after being shot in the chest by a stranger on the subway. The suspect pulled a gun and fired it in close range to the victim. The police are calling it 'unprovoked,' according to NBC news.

The incident happened northbound Q train while traveling over the Manhattan Bridge at 11:45am, according to Police. Witnesses said that the suspect was pacing back and forth in the last subway car before showing his firearm and shooting the 48-year-old rider "without provocation." One witness said there had been no contact between the two men before he pulled the gun out.

Police say the suspect was last seen in a dark-colored hoodie sweatshirt, grey sweatpants and white sneakers.
