A 74-year-old New York City great-grandfather was pushed onto the subway tracks

Trevor Crawford was on his way home from his job at a parking garage on Fifth
Avenue when the attacker accused him of staring at him.

He proceeded to shove him onto the tracks, shattering five of his ribs and
leaving him with pelvic injuries. 



MTA workers were able to pull Crawford to safety on the platform before a train
approached. 

The suspect, who was seen on surveillance footage leaving the station, fled and
is yet to be caught.  

Victim: Trevor Crawford was on his way home from his job at a parking garage on
Fifth Avenue when the attacker accused him of staring at him. He was pushed onto
the subway tracks but was helped back onto the platform before a train
approached The suspect is described as being 5ft 9 in, around 200lb and was last

The random attack took place at the Hunter College subway station as Crawford
waited for the six train to arrive at 12.15am on Tuesday morning. 

The victim's granddaughter, Kerry-Ann Martin told PIX 11 that he still has a
palm print on his chest from where he was pushed. 

The suspect is described as being 5ft 9 in, around 200lb and was last seen
wearing a black polo with brown pants and brown sneakers. 

Crawford is a father of three, with five grandchildren and three
great-grandchildren. 

Martin, his granddaughter said he is a 'feisty' man who 'never looks for
trouble'. 

'His day is coming, that's it, you don't just go around hurting people, we're
all human beings, we're all supposed to take care of each other just like the
animals take care of each other,' Martin said. 

'You watch the pride, the lion pride, everybody has their job, everybody is
different, different race, different color, but that's what makes us special.
You hurt an elder...I hope the police catch up with him, that's all I have to
say,' Martin added. 

Colleagues at the parking garage where he works said he is the 'perfect guy'. 

The victim's granddaughter, Kerry-Ann Martin told PIX 11 that he still has a
palm print on his chest from where he was pushed NYPD Transit Chief Michael
Kemper noted that subway crime has lowered but is still determined to find this
suspect and get him into custody

'Man, that is unacceptable,' said James, one of his manager's. 

NYPD Transit Chief Michael Kemper said: 'He will be in custody soon. And when
people see these incidents or hear about incidents like this, it shocks them and
scares them, and understandably so.' 

Crawford is reported to have landed on his back and neck when he was shoved onto
the tracks. 

According to police, a total of ten people have been pushed onto subway tracks
this year already. 

Last year, twenty-five victims were pushed. Co-workers from Crawford's job had
nothing but nice things to say about him to PIX 11.
