In an attempt to curb graffiti, the City Council voted unanimously yesterday to gradually ban solid metal roll-down gates from storefronts. Starting in July 2011, shopkeepers who install new security shutters will be required to purchase gates made mainly out of metal mesh or metal grilles. Supporters say the new gates will help protect police and firefighters by giving them the ability to see into stores when responding to potentially dangerous situations, while deterring graffiti writers who seem to prefer solid metal gates. Solid metal gates will be banned entirely by 2026.

A disoriented man on methadone was struck by a subway train in the Union Square station, police said yesterday.

 

The 32-year-old Seaford, LI, man, who was not identified, was staggering around the northbound platform of the Nos. 4, 5 and 6 lines at around 1:15 p.m. Saturday after taking the drug at a methadone clinic, sources said.

 

The straphanger fell onto the tracks and got pinned between an oncoming No. 5 train and the platform.

 

He was treated for head lacerations and a fractured foot at St. Vincent's Hospital.
