The victim survived the assault and is in “stable condition.”

From the New York Post:

In what cops are calling a random attack, an unidentified 45-year-old man was at the 18th Street station shortly after 1:30 p.m. Tuesday when the hooded thug pushed him onto the tracks.

Incredibly, the victim survived the harrowing assault with just a head injury — while cops are now grilling a person of interest in the cowardly afternoon attack.

“By God’s own hand, he fell perfectly in the trench,” one law enforcement source said of the victim.

He was listed in stable condition at Bellevue Hospital Tuesday night.

Chilling video footage obtained by The Post shows the cowardly brute roaming the edge of the platform while the victim appears to be looking at his phone as the train pulls into the station.

Without warning the suspect pushes the man onto the tracks, with the unsuspecting straphanger disappearing under the train.

Per TMZ:

We’re told one person is in custody though specific charges have not been revealed yet. The victim is in critical condition.

Police are saying this was a random attack … and, the platform was closed and evacuated during the investigation.

This isn’t the first crime of its kind around NYC subway stations … and, it follows an especially heinous incident involving 61-year-old Debrina Kawam of Toms River, New Jersey, who was allegedly lit on fire by a man.

A suspect, Sebastian Zapeta, has been charged with first-degree and second-degree murder.

In fact, crime has recently become so bad that the volunteer vigilante squad the Guardian Angels — who rose to prominence in the late 1970s and early 1980s — have resumed patrols of New York’s subways, donning their signature red berets and jackets once again.
