A man died Monday evening after being shoved onto the subway tracks in what police are saying was an unprovoked attack at a Harlem station.

A 45-year-old man was taken into custody after allegedly shoving another man onto the tracks before an oncoming train at the 125th Street station at Lexington Avenue in East Harlem.

The suspect was reportedly described as an emotionally disturbed person. 

The fatal incident occurred around 6.45pm on Monday. The victim was pushed on the uptown platform in front of a train that was unable to stop, according to a police spokeswoman.

Neither the victim nor the attacker have been identified.
