The New York City subway system has seen a spate of recent attacks. The man detonated an improvised explosive device, leading to non-life-threatening injuries for several people nearby. President Joe Biden had also been briefed on the latest developments and White House senior staff were in touch with Adams and NYPD Commissioner Keechant Sewell. Police officers were canvassing 4th Avenue, the station's cross-street, asking witnesses whether they were on the train. Outside the station, a police officer yelled, "Let's go! At least two had visible leg injuries, he said.

Seize personnes ont été blessées dont dix par balle dans un attentat commis mardi matin dans la station de métro new-yorkaise de la 36e Rue, près de Sunset ...

La station de la 36e Rue dessert les lignes D, N et R de New York. Le service a évidemment été très perturbé sur celles-ci. La police a cependant voulu se faire rassurante en indiquant qu’aucun autre engin actif de ce type n’a été retrouvé dans le métro de New York. Dans les minutes qui ont suivi l’attaque, des usagers du métro ont commencé à mettre en ligne des photos et vidéos, au contenu très graphique, captés sur les lieux. Dans une entrevue au New York Post dans les minutes ayant suivi l’attaque, une femme a déclaré avoir confondu l’assaillant avec un employé de la Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA), l’équivalent de la STM à Montréal. « Au début, j’ai cru que cet homme était un employé de la MTA et je ne lui ai pas trop porté attention a dit cette femme prénommée Clair. J’ai entendu des coups de feu. Ce qui leur laisse croire que le nombre de victimes aurait pu être plus élevé. La police n’a pas confirmé ces renseignements.

La commissaire de la police, Keechant Sewell, a déclaré que l'attaque n'était pas traitée par les enquêteurs comme un attentat terroriste, sans rien exclure ...

Il s'était notamment engagé à déployer davantage de policiers pour patrouiller dans les stations et sur les quais du métro. Les enquêteurs croient pour l'instant que le tireur a déployé un fumigène avant d'ouvrir le feu, a déclaré l'un des responsables policiers. En début de soirée, la police a trouvé une fourgonnette U-Haul inoccupée à Brooklyn, a déclaré l'un des responsables. La vidéo d'un opérateur de métro montre de la fumée et des voyageurs qui sortent d'une voiture. À l'intérieur d'une voiture de métro, une personne gît au sol. Elle dit que la personne d'intérêt est un homme avec des adresses à Philadelphie et au Wisconsin.

Police say the gunman in the Brooklyn subway shooting fired at least 33 bullets in the rush-hour train, shooting 10 people.

"There was a lot of loud pops, and there was smoke in the other car," she said. New York City has faced a spate of shootings and high-profile bloodshed in recent months, including on the city's subways. It wasn't immediately clear if any officers were in the station when the shootings occurred. Sitting in the back of the train's second car, the gunman tossed two smoke grenades on the floor, pulled out a Glock 9 mm semi-automatic handgun and started firing, Essig said. It left some New Yorkers jittery about riding the nation's busiest subway system and prompted officials to increase policing at transportation hubs from Philadelphia to Connecticut. That key led investigators to James, who has addresses in Philadelphia and Wisconsin, the detective chief said. A Jan. 25 video -- called "Dear Mr. Mayor" -- is somewhat critical of Adams' plan to end gun violence. Police were trying to track down the renter of a van possibly connected to the violence. But cameras weren't working at three stations where police went to look for evidence Tuesday, Essig said. In the train, Jordan Javier thought the first popping sound he heard was a textbook dropping. One, posted April 11, criticizes crime against Black people and says drastic action is needed to change things. The shooter's motive was unknown.

Tunkel was in the subway car where the shooting took place and described the scene as chaotic. Claire Tunkel, 46, told CNN she took off her jacket and tied it around the leg of a man who suffered a gunshot wound. The man then let off a "smoke bomb" and started shooting about 20 seconds after the train took off, Benkada said. He explained the bullet hit him in the back of his knee and came out the other side. He is believed to be the renter of the U-Haul and has addresses in both Wisconsin and Philadelphia, Essig said. "You could feel the bodies." An individual is seen helping an injured and bleeding person off the train and another man is seen hobbling off the train shortly afterward. Smoke pours out of the car where the shooting took place, and people can be heard screaming. Doctors told him the bullet grazed his kneecap. "Mr. James is just a person of interest we know right now who rented that U-Haul van in Philadelphia," Essig said. We don't know right now if Mr. James has any connection to the subway. Police Commissioner Keechant Sewell said there were no known active explosive devices on the train.
