Katie Haidet: Women dies after falling off the escalator

Summary: Jenny Santos, 29-year-old, fell to her death in NYC's Oculus transportation terminal while riding an escalator with her twin sister when she lost her balance and fell. She dropped about 34 feet reporters said. She was pronounced dead after being taken to Bellevue Hospital. Port Authority Police say they are investigating the incident. It was rumored that her twin dropped her hat so she leaned over to catch it. She lost her balance and fell to her death.

Analysis: This article was published on CNN, which is a reliable source. I hadn't heard of the story until reading the article. I feel that it is an important story to be shared because of how often we use escalators. It is important to stay aware of what could happen. This story reminds me of the triangle shirtwaist factory fire, as everyone was trying to escape the fire they unfortunately died.
