A man was killed Monday evening after being pushed onto the subway tracks in an unprovoked attack at the 125th Street station at Lexington Avenue in East Harlem, according to the Police Department.
At 6:48 p.m., a man on the uptown platform shoved the person onto the tracks in front of the oncoming No.
4 train, which was unable to stop, a police spokeswoman said.
Train service at the station resumed by 9 p.m., but a large number of police officers remained at the scene.
“The subway has been insane lately,” Ray Velez, 60, from the Bronx, said as he waited on the 125th St. platform two hours after the attack.
