A man was found with burn injuries on his body inside Penn station, according to police.
Around 8.20 p.m. on Friday, officials responded to reports of a man inside the Manhattan train station with burns on his body, a NYPD spokesperson told The Independent in a phone call.
The man has not yet been identified, police said.
He was transported to Weill Cornell Medical Center and is in stable condition as of late Friday evening.
His urns were serious but not life-threatening, a fire department spokesperson told the New York Times.
There is no risk to the public at this time, authorities said.
What led to the injuries is not immediately clear.
The available information is still preliminary but a joint investigation between the MTA Police and NYPD is underway.
Police taped off a hallway near the entrance to tracks 11 and 12 inside Penn Station, the Times reported.
The incident comes days after a woman was killed after being set ablaze on the subway.
Sebastian Zapeta, 33, is accused of lighting the woman on fire and fanning the flames on a stopped F train on Sunday morning. Earlier Friday, Zapeta was charged with one count of first-degree murder, three counts of second-degree murder and one count of first-degree arson.
