While he did not fall onto the tracks, he did suffer multiple injuries to his mouth and face.<\/p>\n<p>Officers from the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/nypd46pct\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">46th Precinct<\/a> and NYPD Transit District 11 responded to the scene. EMS rushed the victim to St. Barnabas Hospital, where he was treated for his injuries and listed in stable condition.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the perpetrator, who was last seen wearing a tank top and dark-colored pants, fled the station on foot. Surveillance video from a train lighting up either a cigarette or a joint in a packed train car.<\/p>\n<p>No arrests have been made, and the investigation remains ongoing.\n<\/p>\n<p>Anyone with information regarding this attack can call Crime Stoppers at 800-577-TIPS (for Spanish, dial 888-57-PISTA).
