The image shows the woman inside a train station.

She's accused of shoving 87-year-old Barbara Gustern from behind last week on West 28th Street in Chelsea.

Gustern, a beloved voice coach, was waiting for a cab not far from her apartment.

The shove sent Gustern to the pavement, where she hit her head. She died on Tuesday.
