The wounded man hurried off the train and begged a station agent to call 911, cops said. 

His assailant, meanwhile, stayed on the train after the broad-daylight violence.

EMTs rushed the victim to NYC Health + Hospitals/Lincoln, where he was listed in stable condition, according to the NYPD.

Police said it’s unclear what led to the bloodshed, and the suspect was in the wind Wednesday night.
