A Long Island woman has been charged in the stabbing death of her ex-boyfriend outside a train station earlier this month.

Nikeya Barker, 44, surrendered to authorities three days after she allegedly stabbed Shurvell Rush to death in the parking lot of an LIRR train station on May 3.

Police said Barker and Rush were involved in an argument over an incident that unfolded when they were still a couple.
