An NYC man was arrested for attempted murder after pushing a commuter onto the subway tracks.

On New Year's Eve, a man was shoved onto New York City subway tracks, resulting in a critical condition, and adding to the recent increase in violent incidents in the city's subway system.

On Tuesday afternoon, a 911 call was made to the NYPD reporting an assault occurring at a New York City subway station.

According to authorities, a 45-year-old man was struck by a southbound train after being shoved onto the subway tracks. Officers responded and found the man.

A video recording of the ordeal shows a hooded man standing on the platform's edge and a victim looking at their phone as the train arrives at the station.

An unsuspecting man is shoved onto the tracks and disappears under the train in the video.

A 23-year-old man, Kamel Hawkins, has been accused of attempted murder after pushing a stranger, according to police.

The 45-year-old victim was taken to a hospital in critical condition.

A man has been charged with murder and arson for setting a 57-year-old woman on fire while she slept on a train in Brooklyn on Dec. 22, which occurred less than two weeks before Tuesday's violence.
