A man was killed after his leg got stuck between a subway train and platform in Brooklyn Wednesday night, and he was dragged by the train as it pulled out of the station.
MIDWOOD, Brooklyn -- A man was killed after his leg got caught between a subway train and platform in New York City Wednesday night, and he was dragged by the train as it pulled out of the station.Police said the death remains under investigation, but at this point, it appears the 37-year-old victim was exiting the Q train at the Avenue M station when he somehow got stuck.
It was initially thought Bryant got his foot or pants caught in the closing door, but the MTA has since clarified, after reviewing surveillance video of the horrific incident, that it was not an issue with the door. "We do not believed this is a door incident," NYC Transit President Richard Davey said."We believe he was caught between the platform and the train."
Part of the investigation will include into whether the conductor followed protocol to look at platform before train left the station. "A conductor should have his or her head out the window when doors close and be looking to the left and right for approximately 75 feet," Davey said."We do have doors that are sensitive to catching gaps that are open, but again, this was not a door incident. Which again, the protocol is to make sure those doors are working and...to have a conductor to be looking out the window. Or some instances, we have CCTV for the conductor, so he or she can look up.
