A gruesome crime scene in Long Island, New York last night.

Police say a man beheaded a woman and then killed himself by jumping in front of a moving train.

Investigators found the woman, who is believed to be in her 60’s, dead outside of her apartment complex.

Witnesses say the suspected killer, who is thought to be the woman’s son, dragged the body and head out onto the street and kicked it some 20 feet.

Witnesses say some of the woman’s neighbors initially thought the headless body in the street was a Halloween prank, only to discover the body was real after attempting to lift it.

The man then went to a nearby railroad track and jumped in front of an eastbound Long Island Railroad train approximately 25 minutes later.

It was not clear what prompted the murder suicide.
