Man nabbed on DWI warrant after being shoved onto Brooklyn subway tracks

A man shoved onto Brooklyn subway tracks by emotionally disturbed stranger escaped with only minor injuries — but wound up arrested on an outstanding DWI warrant when cops responded, NYPD officials said Monday.
The 43-year-old victim was walking on the Manhattan-bound J train platform when the woman randomly pushed him about 7:40 a.m. Sunday, cops said.
No train was coming at the time and the shocked victim was able to climb back onto the platform and alert a transit worker.
When cops arrived they discovered Morales was being sought for missing a court date for a drunk driving case.
Medics took him to Brookdale University Hospital to be treated for a minor head injury.
The woman ran off and has not been caught. She is described as Black and 5-feet-4 and was wearing a gray coat.
