Police had to run out of the southbound entrance and across the street to reach the man who had fallen on the northbound tracks.NYPDPC/TwitterThe train rolled into the subway seconds after the officers made it onto the platform.The officers then leaped for safety themselves, but one didn’t make it on the first try. The good Samaritan and another straphanger then reached out for the cop and lifted him to safety — just four seconds before the oncoming train emerged from the tunnel.
