(White) Subway Samaritan OK after track-shove
Rayfield GrantJered HarveyA gutsy student tried to save a woman from a crazed homeless person and was shoved onto the subway tracks for his effort, police said Friday. Pace University student Jered Harvey, 19, of the Upper West Side escaped virtually unscathed after his brush with death at the Fulton Street station in the Financial District. Harvey, whose stepdad is pro poker ace Olivier Busquet, intervened just before midnight Thursday on the uptown 2/3 platform. “I could smell the alcohol on him,” Harvey said. “When a drunk man is beating a woman and you try and stop him, of course he’s gonna swing at you.” Drifter Rayfield Grant, 29, socked the teen in the face and threw him onto the tracks before he was restrained by firefighters who happened to be nearby, cops said
