The 25-year-old victim was riding a southbound N train near the Canal Street station in SoHo around 6:30 p.m. last Thursday when he witnessed someone being assaulted by a man.
The victim tried to stop the assault, but when the train arrived at the Canal Street stop, the attacker and a second man ganged up on him, police said.
The pair punched and kicked the victim in the face and threw a speaker and sneaker at his head.
The victim suffered a broken nose, broken cheek and broken jaw. He was hospitalized at New York-Presbyterian Lower Manhattan Hospital.
One of the suspects was arrested, but a second suspect remained at large early Thursday, when the NYPD released images of him. Hours later, police said a 29-year-old man, Qasin Pringle, was arrested on an assault charge.
