A woman lost both her feet after her boyfriend allegedly pushed her onto the subway tracks — where she was struck by a train in Manhattan, police sources said.
The victim, 29, was not immediately identified.
The southbound 3 train was pulling into the Fulton Street Station at Chambers Street Saturday at 10:25 a.m. when it hit her, severing her feet, cops said. “They were arguing and he pushed her,” a police source said.

LOL, cool! People don’t look very friendly. That would be a problem for me because I’d be trying to talk to people.
Does Biden have an alibi?
The National Guard in full regalia doing random bag checks didn’t prevent this.
Well as long as the cops don’t start giving the horses sobriety tests...
You’re not missing anything not riding the NYC subway. (Including your feet apparently.)
I’ve been here continuously for 23 years after returning from the Navy... but I’ve had enough of NYC. This place has gone down the drain. (The govevernor and mayor were both Republicans when I moved back. That will likely never happen again.) I’m moving away in 22 days. Already have my one way ticket.
Congrats! Make your way to a red state.
Is the the perp an illegal...
If the vic’s an illegal, that’s gonna be one mother of hospital and rehab bill on the taxpayers...
That was the boyfriend from hell!
They’re there so commuters can hang themselves, once they can no longer tolerate living in that s**thole.
Too soon?
Not every criminal is illegal. Trust me, NYC has plenty of crazies running around. It’s one their most abundant resources.
OOOFFF...
Sometimes they're too friendly. Years ago I would ride BART daily to my jobs downtown. Very crowded during rush hours, people bunched up against each other. There were a few times when buxom women would press up to me, chest to chest, and give me big smiles. Very uncomfortable for me as I'm married! Then there were the ones who would pinch my butt. Those were the days when I wore suits and carried a briefcase. As I got older I switched to jeans and a backpack, and the nonsense stopped. Now retired, and since Covid I avoid crowds.
Please do continue talking to people. I've seen good interactions. One time I was concerned when a young black gangster type guy sat down next to an elderly white woman doing knitting of a sweater. But as they talked, they shared hobby information on knitting; turns out the black guy did knitting as a hobby.
Hah! Not dumb questions from someone who lives in hill country; I, myself, am from Pennsylvania. Mennonite generally do not use horse and buggy, that’s the Amish. And being from where you are you wouldn’t necessarily know about things pertaining to subways.
Let me rephrase; I am “ORIGINALLY” from Pennsylvania - not any more, not ever again 😁 I escaped to the Great State of Texas 😁👍
Thanks! I’m going to do a few months of traveling first but will definitely end up in a red state afterwards!
Our Mennonites do use horses and buggies but they will ride in vehicles and use cell phones if they need to.
We have wagon trains here that raise money for families in need. We used to ride in them. You haven’t lived until you spent all day on a horse or in a buggy, camped all night, and had barbecue at midnight that was cooked for hours in a pit in the ground. Everything is donated. The women cook and a farmer donates a whole hog or two for roasting.
Nothing like socializing in the Tennessee hill country.
That’s odd. I thought in Tennessee there was a fairly large Mennonite community, and when we visited, they were often in horse and buggies. Maybe there’s a mix? I see Delano uses both variations to describe the farmers market there.

The group in Delano and Englewood are Mennonites but people call them Amish. They use horses and buggies. I’m close to both groups.
