Woman Falls on Tracks at Atlantic Avenue-Barclays Center, Helped Up By Good Samaritans

Victim was taken to Brooklyn Hospital Center in unknown condition.

A woman fell onto the subway tracks at the Atlantic-Barclays Center subway station Monday morning, and was pulled back onto the platform by other riders, an MTA spokesman said.

The incident happened on the Manhattan-bound platform of the N/R line at 8:25 a.m., the spokesman said.

The FDNY sent an ambulance to the transit hub at the intersection of Flatbush and Atlantic avenues at 8:31 a.m, and took her to Brooklyn Hospital Center, an FDNY spokeswoman said. The spokewoman didn't know the woman's condition when she was taken from the scene. 

An MTA spokesman said service was not interrupted at the station, which until a few months ago, was known as Atlantic Ave.-Pacific St.

Does anyone know who the good Samaritans were? We'd love to talk to them.
