Blind Man and Guide Dog Run Over By Subway and Survive
A brave seeing-eye dog loyally leaped to the subway tracks when his owner tumbled off a Harlem platform Wednesday — and they both survived getting run over by a train, according to witnesses. Cecil Williams, 60, was heading to the dentist when he felt faint about 9:30 a.m. on the uptown A train platform. His guide dog, a black labrador named Orlando, was trained to keep him from going over the edge — and tried to hold him up. The dog was barking and trying to pull him , but Williams fell, according to witnesses. Matthew Martin, 54, said that the dog never hesitated.
