Man shoved onto subway tracks in latest unprovoked attack in NYC

A person was shoved onto the tracks at a Bronx subway station in an unprovoked assault on Saturday morning — the most recent violent incident within the Massive Apple’s underground, in accordance with police.

The 26-year-old man was standing on the platform on the East 149th Avenue station ready for a northbound 6 practice round 11:50 a.m. when a stranger instantly pushed him onto the tracks, cops stated.

The person didn't make any contact with the third rail and was helped again as much as the platform by Samaritan earlier than any trains arrived, police stated.

The suspect, a person, fled in an unknown course.

The sufferer was taken to Jacobi Hospital for analysis.

Police stated the investigation is ongoing. Safety cameras are put in on the station.

The mindless shoving comes lower than a day after a 15-year-old was fatally shot throughout a combat on a subway automotive in Queens.

Main crimes on the town’s subways have skyrocketed. In January, Mayor Eric Adams launched his “subway security plan” that noticed over 1,000 further cops per day deployed to the town’s subways.

After 10 months of the initiative, main crime on the subways is up 42% to date this yr in comparison with the identical time interval in 2021, together with eight murders, NYPD and MTA information reveals.
