A group of New York subway riders delivered their brand of rough justice — Big Apple-style — after one man was pushed off of a Manhattan subway platform and the man witnesses believed pushed him tried to escape.
A video of the incident obtained by the New York Post shows what happened after Nathaniel Brown, 41, allegedly shoved a man off the platform and onto the tracks.
The Post reported the man fractured a hip. WABC reported the man suffered a cut to his head, and did not hit the tracks themselves. He was not hit by a train, police said.
Brown also spat on one man who intervened, according to the New York Daily News.

The video shows a crowd at the Broadway-Lafayette station taking action shortly after the incident, which took place at about 10 a.m. Thursday.
The incident began with Brown trying to get away unnoticed, but first one and then more subway riders blocked the exits, keeping their distance as Brown recoiled but still tried to find a way out.
Brown, who at one point removed his shirt, also briefly traded flailing blows with one man who tried to block him from leaving, but also did not want to get too close.
