NEW YORK, NY — A 90-year-old man is recovering in the hospital after being violently shoved by another passenger aboard a southbound F train in Manhattan earlier this month, police said.
The incident happened at around 1 p.m. on October 6 as the elderly victim was riding the New York City subway near Lexington Avenue. According to police, a man in his 40s was acting out inside the subway car when the 90-year-old passenger asked him to exit the train.
Instead, the suspect allegedly turned on the senior and violently shoved the 90-year-old man inside the subway car, sending the elderly passenger to the hospital. The attacker fled the train at the next stop.
Emergency Medical Services rushed the victim to NYU Langone Tisch Hospital in Manhattan, where he was listed in stable condition.
