Subway drama on Upper West

-

A crazed man snarled subway traffic Sunday morning after he went running along the tracks on the Upper West Side, cops said.

Straphange­rs described a bizarre scene when the 21-year-old homeless man took off down the 1,2 and 3 tracks at West 96th Street and Broadway at around 8 a.m.

“There was a guy in a white Tshirt carrying a vinyl record,” straphange­r Stefan Loble, 44, said. “A big 12-inch vinyl record out of [its] sleeve.”

Loble said he saw the man on the tracks, “and then he disappeare­d. They couldn’t find him.”

The power was cut for about an hour as cops followed him toward West 86th Street. Police hit him with a Taser dart, which may have caused his bleeding wound (left), before he was taken to Mount Sinai St. Luke’s Hospital.
