A man in New York City was pushed onto the train tracks at a Midtown subway station Saturday night, although he was not struck by a train, according to police.

The victim, 44, was standing on the train platform of the 1 train at the 50th Street and 7th Avenue station shortly before 7:50 p.m. when someone pushed him from behind onto the tracks, a spokesperson for the New York City Police Department told Fox News Digital.

The man was able to climb back onto the platform and did not make any contact with a train, police said.

The push at the subway station comes after three people were shot during an early morning shooting in Times Square. A 17-year-old suspect was detained after that incident near the intersection of 44th Street and 7th Avenue at around 1:20 a.m. on Saturday.
