A lunatic shoved a man onto the subway tracks in Harlem after an argument on Tuesday night — and days later, police were still hunting for the suspect.

The violent encounter began when the brute started beefing with the victim on the platform of the 125th Street station shortly before 9 p.m., police said on Thursday.

Moments later, the suspect shoved the man onto the tracks and then fled on a southbound 3 train, cops said.

It’s unclear what sparked the dispute and subsequent attack.

The victim sustained minor injuries and bystanders pulled him back onto the platform, according to police.
