Thomas Winston, late of Queens, has assumed morgue temperature.    The whereabouts of  his his dispatcher, whom I will call Bernice Goetz remains unknown,  from Kerry Burke and John Lauinger,  Daily News (New York):

Several thugs tried to drag a woman off a Queens subway train Thursday night, but she fought back and fatally stabbed one of her tormenters before fleeing on another train, police said.

The large group of men – perhaps as many as eight – surrounded the woman outside a chicken restaurant above the 21st St.-Queensbridge station about 9 p.m., police and a witness said.

It appears the only real man in his story was the one wearing the skirt.    The police seem to have no trouble getting a prolonged account on the attack by eight thugs on one woman.    To paraphrase Nelse McLeod, “It should not have taken eight.”    You go girl.
