NEW YORK (AP) – A New York City subway worker is being hailed as a hero for preventing a train from hitting a man who’d had a seizure and two other people who were trying to help him.
Danny Hay was on his way to work Sunday morning when he saw a young man on the tracks at the Delancey Street station in Manhattan.
The Daily News (

By this time two good Samaritans also were on the tracks.
When Hay noticed the power was still on he ran to the end of the station and flashed a light at the oncoming train.
The train operator noticed it and stopped just in time.
