NEW YORK (1010 WINS) — A 73-year-old man was punched in the face while riding a northbound A train in Manhattan on Sunday afternoon, police said.
The man was hit after getting into an argument as the train approached the Chambers Street station at around 4 p.m., according to police, who described his attacker as a teenager to the New York Post.
Police said the victim was transported to Bellevue Hospital and is expected to be OK.
The suspect then fled the scene, topside. No arrests had been made as of Monday morning, officials said.
The assault came just hours after a 48-year-old Goldman Sachs employee was shot and killed in an unprovoked attack aboard a northbound Q train in Manhattan.
