How do you know you've had a wild and crazy Saturday night? Well, for one Brooklyn man, apparently it's when firefighters are removing your from subway tracks—after a train goes over you. The Post reports that Arshad Kahn, 25, "had been partying at a nightclub before stumbling onto Brooklyn-bound tracks at the 121st Street station in Jamaica at about 6 a.m." Kahn said, "I don't remember what happened. I was on the platform. The next thing I remember was the Fire Department pulling me out. How did I survive? I don't even know."
Kahn either crawled into or fell into the subway trough at the J train station. The Post says he didn't have a scratch and Kahn said, "My back hurts a little, but that's it." Is this why the MTA needs partitions and doors on platforms? Or should NYC straphangers take a note from a DC Metro official who doesn't think passengers should be drunk when they're on the train?
