A Big Apple straphanger hero pulled an 83-year-old Air Force vet to safety with only seconds to spare after both were shoved onto Upper East Side subway tracks, allegedly by an illegal immigrant. Jhon Pena, 30, ignored his own injuries and helped pull grandfather Richard Williams back onto the platform just moments before a train rolled into the station, an act of heroism that left the older man’s daughters eternally grateful — even though it may not be enough to save her dad’s life. 6 Air Force veteran Richard Williams, 83, is clinging to life after being shoved onto subway tracks.
