In the beautiful city of New York, something peculiar was recently found on the train. Amongst the normal piles of piss, shit, vomit and garbage was a new addition: someone’s leg. This wasn’t a prosthetic leg, either — this was a full-blown, flesh and blood leg.



“The NYPD said the leg was found at about 1 p.m. ET on Saturday in the Concourse neighborhood of the Bronx, between 167th Street and 170th Street, on the line of the 4 train,” reads a piece from NBC News.


As of now, no one is really sure whose leg it is or how it ended up in a Bronx subway terminal. However, according to a video from TikTok user and New York Post reporter Haley Brown, the leg may have come from someone several miles away — and been dragged to the Bronx underneath a train.

“Police told me that they think that the leg was from a man who jumped on the tracks in Lafayette,” she explains. “[The] train hits him, the leg becomes detached from his body, goes into the four train tracks. Then, a 4 train comes by, picks up the leg in its undercarriage and then drags [the leg] all the way up to the Bronx.”


Brown notes that this is a distance of about nine miles and that the police don’t suspect any criminal behavior led to the man falling onto the tracks.



Thankfully for New Yorkers, the discovery of a whole-ass leg on the tracks only interrupted service for a little bit, and soon, the 4 train was carrying on as normal. But if this story is wrong and you’ve been wondering where your leg is, give the NYPD a call — I’m sure they have it on ice waiting for you.
