Man Hit by Subway After Fall Onto Tracks in Queens; Police Investigation Causes Major Delays

A 38-year-old man somehow fell onto the 7 tracks in Queens and was hit by a train early Thursday, authorities say. 

The man was taken to a hospital in critical condition after the fall at 103rd Street-Corona Plaza shortly before 7 a.m., according to police. 

Service was initially suspended between Flushing-Main Street and Queensboro Plaza because of the investigation. It resumed after about half an hour, around 7:30 a.m., with extensive delays, the MTA said. 

Express service remained suspended for a time but has since resumed.
