The woman who was killed when a man intentionally set fire to her while she was sleeping on a New York City subway train earlier this month has been identified as Debrina Kawam, police said.

Authorities have released the identity of the sleeping woman burned to death inside a New York City subway train by a man who allegedly lit her on fire and stayed to watch the aftermath, officials said Tuesday.

Debrina Kawam had an address in Toms River, N.J., and had spent time in New York City's homeless shelter system.

New York’s controversial plan to charge a $9 congestion pricing fee to enter lower Manhattan starting this Sunday suffered a major blow Monday when a federal court judge agreed with New Jersey and Fort Lee, sending the issue back to the Federal Highway Administration (FHA) for more analysis.

New York's Metropolitan Transportation Authority said it will begin congestion pricing tolling on Sunday despite New Jersey officials claiming that a U.S. district judge's ruling disallows the plan.

After reviewing Federal Judge Leo Gordon's ruling to stop New York City congestion pricing, the MTA says it plans on putting the tolling plan into effect on Sunday. However, attorneys representing New Jersey are saying Monday's opinion is actually a victory for the Garden State.
