"There was blood on the floor," said Montano, who estimated there were about 40 to 50 people on the car at the time. "There was a lot of blood trailing on the floor.… All I saw was people trampling each other, trampling over each other, trying to get into the door which was locked and just a lot of panic, but thankfully, the train moved quickly to the next stop and everyone filed off the train in a rush.
Sam Carcamo, who was waiting in the 36th Street station, told radio station 1010 WINS that after the train pulled into the station, "My subway door opened into calamity. It was smoke and blood and people screaming."
