Female suspect identified as Ebony Butts
A female suspect with a lengthy rap sheet has been arrested for tossing two Mexican tourists off a subway platform in New York City this week, according to reports.
The latest unprovoked attack of its kind unfolded at around 2:15 a.m. on Monday in Manhattan.
Two women, ages 27 and 28, were standing on a platform at a transit station on the Lower East Side of Manhattan where they were ambushed by a shoeless woman identified as 42-year-old Ebony Butts, WABC reports.
Witnesses say the suspect first pushed one of the women, who were visiting from Mexico, onto the tracks below.
When the victim’s friend tried to help her climb back up, the suspect shoved her off the platform, as well.
Good Samaritans rushed to aid the women, who were both injured, and helped pull them off the tracks.
New York Police Department officers quickly arrested Butts and brought her to Bellevue Hospital.
Butts has been arrested at least nine times since 1999 and has been deemed an “emotionally disturbed person,” the New York Post reports.

“It was surreal,” witness Joe Avivia told the Post. “You hear stories of people getting pushed, but it actually happening in front of your eyes is different.”
