A 17-year-old boy was struck and killed by an F train in Queens late Monday morning, the NYPD said.
Police said the teen struck another teen with a bottle during a dispute at the Jackson Heights-Roosevelt Avenue/74th Street station in Jackson Heights around 11 a.m.
When a bystander and the teen who was allegedly struck tried to grab the boy, he fled down a flight of stairs and onto the train tracks, where he was hit by a northbound F train, the NYPD said.
The boy was pronounced dead at the scene soon after, police said. His name wasn't immediately released.
The other teen was taken to a nearby hospital with minor injuries to the nose and head, according to police.
The incident temporarily disrupted service along the E, F, M and R train lines.
Manhattan-bound E, F, M and R trains resumed stopping at Jackson Heights-Roosevelt Avenue just after 10 p.m., according to the MTA.
