• There has to be more to this story. No one of sound mind stands anywhere near the ledge when a train is pulling into the station. Furthermore, the sheer velocity X tonnage of a subway train will decapitate you or cause severe damage to your cranium even at moderate speeds o 10 to 15 miles per hour. All that said, I hope the guy is alright but we need clarification on what actually happened here.

• Will is a writer on Southland this season. We just got one of his fantastic scripts a day before the accident. So much talent. So tragic. My heart goes out to his family.

• A terrible accident has stricken my lifelong friend Will Rokos. My prayers are for him and his family. He is tough enough and stubborn enough to overcome this. I love you Will, get well soon.

• Hi – I was actually a passenger on the no.2 train that hit Will. As we came into the 14th station there was a loud bang and the train stopped. I could see a man lying on the ground who looked in a terrible way. I was so concerned for days and followed the story on the news. Great to hear that Will is recovering well…
