Two cops got together with straphangers to protect a bewildered man who wound up shockingly near the third rail when he tumbled to the tracks of a Lower East Side tram station.

The unidentified 60-year-elderly person plunged from the uptown No. 6 stage at Canal St. not long before 4:30 p.m. Friday, police said.

Despite the fact that the fall occurred at heavy traffic, the coronavirus pandemic made the platform stunningly void of individuals.

Online video shows two straphangers as they saw the bewildered man on the track bed.

They discussed whether to bounce down and pull the man up as one of them flagged the approaching train with his wireless.

The powerless casualty squirmed on one of the track rails, his head creeps from the electric third rail. The train halted similarly as it was entering the station.

NYPD Officers Christopher Tuccio and Officer William Jansen before long showed up and went down to the tracks.

“Whoa, whoa, whoa take it easy. We’re not going hurt you,” Tuccio said as the confused man battled. “We’re going to get you off the train tracks.”

The officials lifted him up to a couple of good Samaritans on the stage, who completed the spare.

“We’re just doing what we can to help people,” said Tuccio. “Anybody would want to help given the same situation.”

"The man was taken to Bellevue Hospital in stable condition", cops relayed.
