A 23-year-old man was arrested and charged with attempted murder on Tuesday night, hours after a man waiting on a Manhattan subway platform was violently shoved into the path of an oncoming train.

The victim, whose name had not been released, was in critical but stable condition at Bellevue Hospital, the police said.

The man who was arrested in the shoving, Kamel Hawkins, was also charged with second-degree assault. He has a string of past arrests on charges of assault, harassment and weapons possession, according to police and court records.

Video of the attack, which happened around 1:30 p.m., shows a man in an orange jacket who appears to be looking down at his phone while standing near the edge of the southbound platform at the 18th Street No. 1 station.


A person in a dark coat is then seen passing behind the man in the orange jacket before doubling back and shoving him forcefully off the platform and into the path of a southbound train.

Other videos posted to social media appear to show a group of firefighters pulling the man out from between train cars and onto the platform. As he lies flat on the floor, his hand moves slightly. “He’s alive!” one person exclaims.

Emergency services workers responded to the scene, stabilized the man and put him on a stretcher, according to the Fire Department. He was taken to Bellevue Hospital, the police said.


Power to the tracks was shut off in the area for an hour, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority said. Service resumed a little before 4 p.m.

PS- MTA’s new $700K subway gates designed to keep out fare-beaters can be defeated by simple hack

“I don’t think I’ve seen technology that’s perfect in any city, frankly,” Rich Davey, the MTA’s top executive for the city subway and bus systems, said at the system’s Dec. 4 unveiling. “But this is obviously going a long way to improving our current turnstile system.”

At the Sutphin-Archer station this week, several cops watched the gates, occasionally stopping brazen law-breakers and even writing one man a $100 ticket.

It’s not quite the rollout the agency wanted for the new design, installed late last year as part of a test of potential remedies to the [url=https://nypost.com/2024/01/10/metro/hack-defeats-mtas-700k-subway-gates-to-keep-out-fare-beaters/]fare-beating plague that robbed $690 million from the city’s coffers in 2022.[/img]
