Escalator Incident at Davis Square | Boston News
Description
Another escalator scare hit Davis Square Station in Somerville—this time, someone’s clothes got snagged and they were trapped, but a quick-thinking rider hit the emergency stop and saved them. The victim suffered a hand injury but is expected to recover. It’s especially haunting given the tragic death of Steven McCluskey just months prior, when similar circumstances led to his fatal choking. The MBTA is reiterating basic safety: hold the handrail, avoid loose clothing, and act fast if you see trouble. Strollers and wheeled items? Use the elevator. Awareness and swift action could be lifesaving.
