A man in New York City was shoved onto the train tracks at a Midtown subway station on Saturday night, but fortunately, he was not hit by a train, as reported by the police.

The 44-year-old victim was on the platform for the 1 train at the 50th Street and 7th Avenue station just before 7:50 p.m. when an individual pushed him from behind onto the tracks, a representative from the New York City Police Department informed Fox News Digital.
