TikToker Chris Olsen recalls terrifying knife incident on New York City subway The incident comes after a woman was recently burned to death while riding the subway.
This caused the entire car to run toward the side door of the subway car in the hopes of exiting, right by where Olsen and Haroldson were sitting.
“We get pushed all the way to the front of that next car, but the door in front of that is completely locked, all we can hear behind us is people are screaming,” Olsen said.
Olsen explained that as someone who regularly rides the subway, he wasn’t paying much attention to the two passengers who were screaming at each other, until his friend, Caroline Haroldson, who is from out of town, drew his attention to it.
