14-year-old subway surfer rushed to hospital after striking head at NYC station

A 14-year-old boy was injured Sunday in a harrowing subway surfing incident in Queens — becoming the latest young victim of the dangerous trend.

The teenager was riding atop a southbound 7 train when his head struck a beam as the train pulled into the 111th Street Station just before 4:30 p.m., according to the NYPD.

The boy was rushed to Elmhurst Hospital in stable condition, cops said.

The Corona 7 train station is above ground but has an overhang that stretches across the tracks, leaving about a foot of space between the beams and the top of the train roof.

Subway surfing has become increasingly common as teens seek to emulate the daredevil behavior widely shared on social media platforms such as TikTok and Instagram, officials said.

MTA statistics show there were 450 reports of people riding outside of trains, including on top of them, during the first six months of 2023 — a figure up sharply from 262 reported over the same time period in 2019.
