An E train heading to Queens was evacuated at the 50th Street station because someone tossed a microwave in front of it.
“It’s crazy because then that delays everybody getting to their destination, where they need to go, and I don’t think it’s fair that one person will do that just because they feel like doing it,” commuter Makeda Nelson said.
The train’s emergency brakes were triggered before it struck the microwave, according to the MTA.
What You Need To Know
There was a 40% increase in subway fires last year, reaching 1,006
A shopping cart was set on fire inside a No. 1 train at 181st Street on Wednesday and a fire was set inside a No. 1 train at 18th Street last week
“Underlying mental health and homelessness issues are responsible” for recent fires that were intentionally set fires or due to “excessive belongings,” MTA spokesman Michael Cortez said
The city (and the country) is falling apart. Crime, theft, shootings, illegal immigration, prices, etc. all going through the roof.
And we were told that if the Democrats held all levels of power (like they do now on the federal, state and city levels) things would be all wonderful. We were suppose to be like Norway except full of diversity and fun.

Microwaves are kinda heavy. That takes some effort.

Think about it. The moron had to carry the microwave from somewhere into a subway station and then toss it in front of train. So this was planned in advance by this moron.

Exactly my point
Nobody even thinks of the logistics of this
For all we know the person could have been paid to do it, who knows at this point
But we love our shock media

You can see it all around. The enemies of this country are diverting the tax dollars meant for the subway / bridges / roads, etc. to pay offs for illegals or anyone they think they can get to vote for them.

No kidding. Ditto throwing that Citibike awhile ago. Citibikes are heavy. You can get a real workout riding those things. Whoever threw those things on the subway. He or she's been working out. And healthy.
We have the video of that Citibike incident but no one saw and taped someone carrying a microwave around the platform much less throwing it? Things that make you go hmmmm....
