"Authorities say that after he was stabbed, the 36-year-old man asked 'Did you stab me?' He pulled a gun from his jacket and asked again, 'You stabbed me, right?'" ABC7NY explained.
Police said the aggressive man was shot with his own gun when the other man managed to grab it from him and open fire. He was taken to New York-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital in critical condition.
In the videos that went viral on social media, other subway users are also seen walking away from the fight and shouting for the driver to open the doors.
