A female passenger died after being set on fire by a man on a New York City subway train Sunday morning, according to police.

Around 7:30 a.m., a man, who police believe is about 25 to 30 years old, approached the sleeping victim on a stationary F train car and intentionally set her on fire before fleeing the scene, NYPD Det. Austin Glickman told CNN.

Police officers conducting a routine patrol at the Coney Island-Stillwell Avenue subway station in Brooklyn encountered the victim on fire inside a subway car, Glickman said.

Officials extinguished the fire, and EMS responded to the scene and pronounced the female dead, according to the detective.

Police are investigating the incident as a homicide, Glickman said.
