A recent subway surfing incident in Brooklyn highlights a dangerous trend in New York City, raising concerns among officials and the NYPD. This reckless behavior has led to a series of injuries and fatalities, including a 12-year-old seriously hurt last month. With a history of tragic accidents, including the death of a teenage girl who fell onto subway tracks, city officials are increasingly alarmed by the thrill-seeking antics of youths. As this dangerous trend continues, it showcases the urgent need for public safety measures.
The unidentified risk-taker runs atop six cars on elevated tracks near the Hewes Street station shortly before 2 p.m. Monday, with the train at a standstill.
The potentially lethal trend continues to be a concern for the NYPD and city officials following several deaths and serious injuries to youngsters looking for an ill-conceived adrenaline rush.
Last month, a 12-year-old boy was seriously hurt when he tumbled off a 7 train in Queens and onto the tracks - narrowly missing being hit by another train.
All too often, the consequences are deadly.
