SAN FRANCISCO - A 49-year-old homeless man, who allegedly shoved a woman into an oncoming BART train from the Powell Street platform this week, was charged with murder and a special circumstance of lying in wait by the San Francisco District Attorney's Office on Wednesday.

Trevor Belmont, also known as Hoak Taing, is suspected of pushing 74-year-old Corazon Dandan, of San Mateo County in front of a Millbrae-bound train on Monday shortly after 11 p.m.

Belmont was arrested by police on the station platform shortly after the attack. … If convicted, Belmont could face life without parole.

Dandan hit her head on the train and then fell on the platform. She later died from her injuries at a local hospital.
