A man found on fire at Penn Station was rushed to the hospital with burn injuries Friday, cops said.

A passerby alerted two MTA police officers that a man was on fire at the bustling transit hub near W. 34th St. around 8:10 p.m., police said.

The man was on fire when police found him near the entrance to the Nos. 1, 2 and 3 trains, cops said.

Medics transported him to Weill Cornell Medical Center. His condition was not immediately available, cops and firefighters said.

It’s unclear how the man was set ablaze.

A woman died Sunday after a man set her clothes on fire while she was sleeping aboard a subway car at the Coney Island-Stillwell Ave. station in Brooklyn, then callously fanned the flames with a shirt, according to police.

Police arrested Sebastian Zapeta, a Guatemalan migrant who had been living in a Brooklyn men’s shelter.
