A Chicago man has been charged in the fatal shooting of four sleeping passengers on a train Monday.
Fox Chicago reported that Ryanne S. Davis, 30, has been charged with four counts of first-degree murder.
The four victims were sleeping on a Chicago Transit Authority Blue Line train around 5:30 a.m. when they were shot, authorities said.
Gani S. Davis, 30, of Chicago, claimed she shot and killed four sleeping passengers on a Chicago-area train.
The train arrived at Forest Park Station and CTA workers notified police.
Three victims were pronounced dead at the scene, while the fourth victim was transported to Loyola University Medical Center before being pronounced dead.
Two of the victims have been identified as Adrian Collins, 60, and Simeon Behisi, 28. The other two victims have so far only been identified as male and female.
Davis fled the scene after the shooting, but was apprehended on the Chicago Transit Police Pink Line. Police reportedly found a gun during the arrest.
“This heinous and horrific act of violence should never have happened, however, on a public transit train,” the Chicago Transit Authority said in a statement.
Police said surveillance video showed Davis walking into a train car and shooting three of the victims who were sitting separately.
The fourth victim was in another car.
