Man accused of pushing woman to her death off train platform

Miami, FL – A man has been charged with second-degree murder after allegedly pushing a woman off a train platform, resulting in her death.

Jorge Gomez, 45, was taken into custody at Miami-Dade County jail on Thursday. The incident reportedly occurred at the Dadeland North Metrorail Station on November 14 around 12:30 p.m.

The victim, 32-year-old Kanisa Love, was backing away from Gomez when he approached her and unprovoked, shoved her to the ground. Prosecutors stated that his actions caused her to fall from the elevated platform, leading to fatal injuries.

During his court appearance on Friday, the judge commented on the severity of the incident, noting that Gomez pushed a woman standing on a Metrorail platform. Video evidence confirmed the platform’s significant height above ground.

Although the incident occurred shortly after noon, emergency services did not arrive at the scene until the following morning. Medical examiners later determined that Love died from blunt force trauma to her head.

Gomez has an extensive arrest record dating back to 2014. He has been ordered to remain in custody without bond.
