Teenage girl takes train on joyride and crashes it, police say
A teenage girl took an empty New York City subway train on a joyride along with a male companion before crashing it and fleeing, police say.
Surveillance photos released by officers show one person dressed all in pink, including a pink shower cap, and another in a blue tank top.
The pair boarded an unoccupied train parked at the Briarwood subway station in Queens just after midnight on 12 September and somehow got it running, officials said.
They crashed it into another parked train and ran, according to police.
