EAST HARLEM, Manhattan (PIX11) – An NYPD officer was somehow cut in the face during an arrest at an East Harlem subway station Tuesday morning, video obtained by PIX11 shows.
It was not immediately clear how the officer was cut or why the woman was being arrested.
A video shows two officers struggling with a woman near the turnstiles at the 125th Street station. One of the officers’ faces is bleeding as the two cops attempt to put the woman in cuffs, while an onlooker films and yells “get off of her.”
Dozens of cops ran underground to assist, and the officer was taken to an area hospital with non-critical injuries. The FDNY confirmed two people were transported to the hospital from the station just before 8 a.m.
On Monday, a man died after he was pushed on the tracks at this East Harlem station in what authorities are calling an unprovoked attack.
And the incident comes just one day after officer Jonathan Diller was fatally shot in Queens.
