A straphanger is expected to be OK after being clipped by a subway train.
The MTA said the man was hit by a northbound 1 train as he was walking along the platform edge at the 66th Street station just before 10:30 a.m. Wednesday.
He did not fall onto the tracks.
The MTA said it's possible he was visually impaired and that he had a service dog at his side.
Train service was temporarily delayed as EMTs took the man to Roosevelt Hospital.
