Time Square: Man Jumps on Track, Gets Hit by Train

A man was clinging to life Thursday after leaping in front of a No. 7 train at the Times Square station, officials said.

Police say the unidentified man, believed to be in his 30s, hurled himself in front of the southbound train as it entered the station on Seventh Ave. and 42nd St. about 9:45 a.m.

Paramedics rushed the man to Bellevue Hospital in critical condition, officials said.

An MTA spokesman said service on the No. 7 line was suspended between the Hunters Point station and Times Square for an hour and a half after the attempted suicide.
