A man found on fire at Penn Station was rushed to the hospital with burn injuries Friday, cops said.

A passerby alerted two MTA police officers that a man was on fire at the bustling transit hub near W. 34th St. around 8:10 p.m., police said.

The man was on fire when police found him near the entrance to the Nos. 1, 2 and 3 trains, cops said.

Medics transported him to Weill Cornell Medical Center. His condition was not immediately available, cops and firefighters said.

It’s unclear how the man was set ablaze.

A woman died Sunday after a man set her clothes on fire while she was sleeping aboard a subway car at the Coney Island-Stillwell Ave. station in Brooklyn, then callously fanned the flames with a shirt, according to police.

By escalator, they really mean undocumented immigrant, I’m guessing?

Seems that way.

Not a lot of info about how it happened, but based on the circumstances, my guess is he Richard Pryor'd himself while smoking crack.

When I was in Manhattan awhile back, I caught the Long Island Railroad at Penn Station to go to JFK. Could have been me.

On a serious note, there were a bunch on sketchy looking people hanging around there.

I've ridden an escalator at Penn Station. This could have been me.

What are these people wearing that they can just be “set on fire”?

Cotten doesn’t burn easily, must be wearing polyester.

Or are the arsonists hosing them down with something?
