QUEENS, N.Y. - The New York City Police Department says a suspicious package found after a man was struck at a Queens subway station this morning has been deemed safe.
It happened at the 80th Street station on the A line in Ozone Park.
Police say the investigation started after receiving a call that a man had jumped in front of a train at the station.
When they arrived they found a suspicious device in his backpack left on the platform.
Sources tell NY1 it was a gray pipe wrapped in electrical tape with caps on both ends.
The man struck by the train is said to be in critical condition at Jamaica Hospital.
Subway service in the area has resumed but riders should expect residual delays.

Ignorance is bliss.
