An off-duty MTA conductor was shot dead within a block of her Brooklyn home late Monday, police said.
Jacqueline Dicks, 41, was wearing her MTA uniform when three suspects, all male, confronted her on Elton Ave. by Cozine Ave. in East New York just after 11:40 p.m., according to authorities. One pulled out a gun and shot her once in the head.
A witness who called 911 told police the trio bolted.
Dicks died at the scene, cops said.
Her prone body lay uncovered on a sidewalk for several hours as detectives investigated the scene into the early hours Tuesday.
Cops towed away a nearby Mercedes Benz apparently connected to the shooting.
At one point, three men arrived, one of whom said he owned the Mercedes.
None spoke to reporters, and one of the men wiped a single tear from his face as he walked to another car and drove off.
An MTA spokesman declined comment early Tuesday, referring all questions to police.
