Video: Naked Man's Racist, Violent Subway Tirade: MyFoxNY.com
An emotionally disturbed man stripped down and yelled racial slurs inside a subway station in the Bronx before a cop was able to subdue him. The bizarre nudity- and profanity-laced tirade was caught on video and, of course, uploaded to YouTube.
The video shows the boxer-clad man yelling the n-word at a cop on the platform of the Hunts Point Station before begging the officer to shoot him. He then continues to scream at passengers and slam the doors of a subway car before pulling off his underwear and lunging at people on the platform.
At one point he grabs a bag from a woman and slams it on the platform and also taking swings at onlookers.
The video also shows the cop struggling to take the man down, but eventually succeeding with some help from several other men in plainclothes. It is not clear if these men are police officers or simply subway riders.
The NYPD told Fox 5 that the 41-year-old man was not arrested or charged but was taken to Lincoln Hospital for evaluation.
The officer who subdued the man suffered minor injuries, authorities said.
