Commuters duck for cover on NYC subway after man is shot in the head

commuters scrambled for cover after an 'aggressive' rider was shot in the head on a subway train during rush hour on Thursday.

The shooting occurred on a northbound A train in Brooklyn shortly after 4.45 pm, when a verbal dispute between two strangers escalated into a fight.

A 32-year-old man boarded the train at the Nostrand Avenue stop and was approached by a 36-year-old man who appeared to be 'aggressive and provocative,' according to witnesses.
