Police arrested a man they allege shoved a commuter onto the tracks at a Brooklyn subway station this week. NYPD officials said officers spotted Ivan Negron, 39, walking through the Union Square station around 12:45 p.m. Thursday and recognized him from surveillance photos the department had released. Negron was charged with attempted assault for the incident, which police said happened around 5 a.m. Sunday at the 36th Street stop in Sunset Park, officials said.

According to police, a 17-year-old boy was waiting for the train at the Livonia Avenue subway station around 5 p.m. when he was approached by three teen boys who forcibly tried to take the victim's sweatshirt. As the boys surrounded the victim inside the station mezzanine, he fought off an attempted theft, but the group took turns punching him, and one suspect stabbed him in the leg, NYPD officials said.

Detectives in Brooklyn are questioning a man who allegedly slashed a commuter in the face on board a subway train Thursday morning following an argument, police reported. The incident happened on a Manhattan-bound A train as it rolled into the Nostrand Avenue station at about 11:40 a.m. on Dec. 11. According to police sources, a 51-year-old man was sitting inside a train car when a 19-year-old man took the seat next to him.

The NYPD released an image of the suspect, who has a medium complexion with curly hair with a goatee and is approximately 5 feet 8 inches tall and 140 pounds. He wore a navy blue hooded sweatshirt, black pants, and black sneakers. A reward of up to $3,500 is being offered for information that leads to his arrest and indictment.

The victim was on a Manhattan-bound Q train rumbling into the Church Ave. subway stop in Flatbush at around 6:30 a.m. when another commuter confronted him. The suspect pulled out a sharp object and slashed the victim in the face, cops said. Wounded and bleeding, the victim got off the train at Church Ave. and alerted police. EMS rushed him to Kings County Hospital, where he was treated for a minor wound.

Bronx prosecutors asked the judge that Marshall, a repeat offender with a stint in state prison under his belt, be held on $50,000 cash bail or a $150,000 bond in the Aug. 28 Bronx attack. "Well, certainly I have information before me that I would be perfectly - it would be perfectly reasonable for me to set bail here," Wolf said during the proceedings. "I don't have no bail on me," Marshall shouted, according to a transcript of the arraignment.

NEW YORK CITY - A man was slashed, and another person was pushed onto the subway tracks at a Manhattan subway station late Saturday night, police said. The incident happened at the 57th Street subway station in Midtown around 11:10 p.m. A 39-year-old man was found slashed in the left hand, and a 37-year-old man who was pushed onto the tracks suffered an elbow injury.

Images released by the NYPD earlier Tuesday showed the alleged suspect boarding a Bronx-bound 2 train shortly after the assault. The NYPD says the man wanted in connection with a deadly assault inside the Jay Street subway station in downtown Brooklyn is now in custody. He was taken to New York-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. His name has not yet been released as police work to notify his family.

The NYPD reported that the victim, a 64-year-old MTA worker, spotted a man walking along the southbound tracks' roadbed inside the tunnel. Law enforcement sources reported that the employee confronted the trespasser, instructing him to leave the area, but the pair got into a dispute. The suspect became enraged, police said, and slashed the worker across his neck before fleeing further into the tunnel.

A video of the incident shows a man attempting to pull a woman down a subway platform while bear-hugging her, before bystanders intervened.

The victim began to scream for help, prompting several men to gather on the elevated platform. "Let her go!" one yelled.
