Ex-nurse injured by stroller ma wants justice

She’s down — but not out. An elderly former nurse whose shoulder was broken at a Manhattan subway station says she fully intends to get justice for the vicious attack.

“Should they be found out, I will press charges,” said Katherine Jordan about her attacker on Wednesday, as she nursed the broken limb at her Washington Heights home.

Jordan, 71, said her eyes lit up when she stepped into the elevator at the 168th St. station Sunday evening and saw a young mother with twin babies in a pink stroller.

“I’m a former neonatal intensive care unit nurse,” Jordan told the Daily News. “So when I see babies I kind of get [excited], you know.”

But the mother of two was apparently not in a good mood.

The elevator was a bit cramped, with two other women inside and Jordan pushed to the back, unable to reach the buttons.

When the senior asked someone to push it for her, the suspect replied, “Push it over there” and motioned to the panel on the wall, Jordan recalled.

Jordan said she didn’t want to be rude and reach across the two other women in the elevator, who she believes were friends with the mom.

“They were saying, ‘You push the button,’ but they were standing right next to the panel. So we’re just standing there, and then she [the suspect] returned to me and said, ‘Excuse me, but you’ve got to get out of here,’ ” Jordan said.

“She pushed me so hard my feet came off the ground, I believe, and I landed on my shoulder,” she said.

“You just assaulted me,” the stunned victim told her attacker. “They were, like, proud of it. Just her attitude toward it,” Jordan told The News.

“I didn’t talk to them, I made no comment. Maybe I should have commented on the cute little babies. You never know. It happened so fast.”

The suspect, described by police as a Black woman wearing a surgical mask and a red jacket over a white hoodie, is still being sought.

Jordan’s shoulder was not dislocated, but she shared an X-ray of the broken bone, and confessed Wednesday that it’s just sinking in “how mentally upset I am.”

“I’m afraid to get into the bathtub, and I’m not prepared, I can’t cook. I like to cook on the weekends, and I bought all this stuff and I can’t chop,” she said.

The former nurse has hired someone to care of her and has to take time off from her administrative job with a home care agency.

With video of her attacker now public, she’s hoping for a swift arrest.

“People need to know that they can’t behave like that,” Jordan said.
