The man accused of burning a woman to death inside a New York City subway train has been indicted on state charges.

Prosecutors on Monday charged 33-year-old Sebastian Zapeta-Calil with first- and second-degree murder and first-degree arson in connection with the death of a woman who died after being set on fire in a New York City subway train a day earlier.

Police said an unknown male had approached the woman, set her on fire, and then left the subway car around 7:30 a.m.
