A
woman was rescued by passersby after a man pushed her onto the tracks of an
oncoming U-Bahn train in Berlin on Monday.
The
U5 train was heading towards the platform at Kaulsdorf-Nord on Monday afternoon
when police say a 37-year-old man suddenly jumped up from a bench, approached
the woman from behind and pushed her onto the tracks.
The
66-year-old woman injured her knee in the fall, but passersby hurried to help
her off of the tracks before the train arrived. People on the platform also
managed to restrain the man and alert police.
She
was taken to hospital for treatment, while the man was detained by officers
before being taken to hospital himself for psychiatric treatment. He reportedly
did not say a word about what happened.
