Legendary MC Doctor Ice of UTFO was the conductor of a packed Brooklyn train where a passenger was shot during a rush hour attack on Thursday (3/14). Doctor Ice, born Fred Reeves told the New York Post that he is "shellshocked". "My nerves are through the roof," he said.

Passengers raced toward Reeves' car attempting to gain entry as a fight between Younece Obuad and DaJuan Robinson escalated to gunfire. "You don't expect to hear gunshots in the car of your train," said Reeves to Pix11. "I'm thankful that we were able to help as many passengers as we could."

Passengers wanted to pull the emergency cord, but Reeves warned that would cause a delay in getting help. "We say don't pull that, because if you pull it we're stuck in the tunnel," he explained. “So, I closed the door, and I’m talking to my supervisors: ‘This is 16-18, apple, Lefferts, 2-7, coming into Hoyt-Schermerhorn, we need police and emergency service. I’m thinking it was fight because the people flooded my position because it’s in my car but not my cab.”

Reeves says that he no longer feels safe at work, and isn't sure when he will return. “Bullets don’t have no name,” he said. “And this ain’t no bulletproof cab, so I got to duck down and hope that the person is not shooting anywhere. You don’t know what the situation is, they could’ve just been shooting at anybody.”

Doctor Ice is one fourth of the legendary group UTFO, who released the hit "Roxanne, Roxanne" in 1984, prompting several dozen responses, and launching the careers of several rap acts. UTFO also released the hits "Cold Wanna Be With Me", "Leader of The Pack", and "Split Personality", as well as five studio albums. Doctor Ice released his solo album, The Mic Stalker in 1989, and he has enjoyed success as a producer and dancer for WHODINI.
