"Riding on top of a subway car is reckless, extremely dangerous and inconsiderate as it causes significant delays for other New Yorkers," said Pat Warren, MTA Chief Safety and Security Officer. "Seeking a thrill that promises heartache for family and friends is foolhardy; choose other avenues to have some fun, ones that demonstrate respect for those you care about."
The teen was taken to Elmhurst Hospital, where he's listed in critical condition.
Police say the teen suffered a head injury.
No further details were released. The investigation is ongoing.
