IDK why news outlets all suck at writing headlines these days
It should say something like: "Woman burns in subway, NYPD suspect homicide" or simply "NYPD suspect homicide in subway fire"
"NYPD" implies the city
police "suspect homicide" means she died
The finer details (ie that she was immolated rather than deliberately trapped in a burning area, that this was Brooklyn rather than Queens) can be gleaned from reading the actual article
140 characters isn't enough for (most) nuanced arguments but it's way too many for a headline
