Police said the man, who was in his 60's, was pronounced dead at an area hospital.

An MTA official said the victim was struck by a southbound C train line at around 3:05 p.m. and landed back on the platform.

Southbound A, C, and E trains were temporarily delayed as first responders attended to the victim.

As of 5:11 p.m., Downtown C and E trains have resumed stopping at 42 St-Port Authority Bus Terminal after the investigation was completed at the station.

In an incident earlier Monday, a man, in his 30s, was walking along the tracks just before 6 a.m. when he was struck by a Manhattan-bound 7 train at Grand Central, according to police.

A conductor found the man under the fourth car, police said. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police said no criminality is suspected amid an ongoing investigation.
