A Bronx man accused in the random, fatal stabbing of a straphanger at the East 176th Street subway station was ordered held without bail at his court appearance early Sunday.
Saquan Lemons, 27, was allegedly seen on surveillance footage “tumbling out” of a 4 train at about 10:30 p.m. Thursday and“on a crowded train platform during very busy evening hours,” prosecutors said in Bronx criminal court.
Lemons — who previously did four years behind bars for a robbery in Georgia — was spotted after the attack holding “a bloody knife outside train station and then walking away from the scene,” assistant district attorney Gabriella DeRitis said. Surveillance footage showed Lemons stabbing Charles Moore on a subway platform last week. Moore died on Friday.Moore, a father of an 8-year-old girl, was remembered by family as a “sweet” person who wasn’t aggressive.
