Times photographers are at the location where several people were shot during the morning rush at a train station in Brooklyn.
The Fire Department reported that 16 people were injured, including several by gunfire. Preliminary reports suggested that five people were shot at the station, where the D, N and R lines pass through the Sunset Park neighborhood, around 8:30 a.m., the Police Department said. Emergency workers in the Sunset Park area after the shooting at the subway station. A uniformed officer approached, said his radio was not working and asked passengers to call 911. He heard someone calling for a doctor and followed that person to the front of the train. Times photographers are documenting the scene in the aftermath of the shooting.

She credited the decrease in the homicide rates to a surge of arrests. Yet it remains far safer than in previous years, and crime is lower than in many of the nation’s largest cities. Days later, a 61-year-old woman was killed after she was struck by a stray bullet in the Bronx. And, last month, a 3-year-old toddler was shot in the shoulder outside a Brooklyn daycare. The man, inspired by the Islamic State, was convicted and sentenced to life in prison last year. In February, Mr. Adams and Gov. Kathy Hochul announced a new subway safety plan to encourage riders to return. New York City’s emergency messaging service sent out a notice at 11 a.m. warning people to avoid the entire area, from 20th to 40th Streets between Third and Fifth Avenues, normally a bustling residential zone. Transit officials suspended service on the B and W lines and parts of the D, N and R lines because of the investigation. Mr. Adams said in a recent interview that his mayoralty will be judged on public safety, which he was working to improve. Mr. Adams, a former police officer, has sought to reassure residents and has made tackling gun crime a central focus of his administration. Mr. Adams, 61, announced on Sunday that he had tested positive for the virus on his 100th day in office. The increase comes after gun violence hit historic lows in 2018 and 2019, and the city still remains safer than in previous years. Videos posted on social media showed panicked riders pouring from a train and onto a platform at 36th Street as smoke billowed through the station.
Mayor Eric Adams issues a subway safety plan in February, and placed a strong emphasis on moving unhoused people from subway stations into housing.

Un important dispositif de sécurité a été mis en place au niveau de la 36e rue et de la 4e avenue de Brooklyn, où se sont produit les faits. Mais d'autres drames impliquant des armes à feu ont fait la une des médias depuis. Au moins treize personnes ont été blessées, mardi 12 avril, par "plusieurs tirs" d'arme à feu et des "engins explosifs non déclenchés" ont été retrouvés, ont indiqué les pompiers.
En soirée mardi, l'individu qui a commis ces actes était toujours en fuite. La police de New York (NYPD) recherche activement Frank James, une personne d' ...
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. Selon CNN, le service de police aurait également un intérêt pour un camion de type U-Haul portant une plaque d’immatriculation de l’Arizona.
The attack on Tuesday brought to life a horror that the city had long avoided: a mass shooting on the subway.
Ensuring a safe subway system has been part of a strategy to lure people back to offices, and tourists back to the city. Video captured by riders and people on the platform showed the familiar space of a subway car transformed into a trap. Nayah Martin, 22, who uses the 36th Street station to get to her job at a surgery center nearby, was planning on taking an Uber. “It spooked me,” Ms. Martin said. “I’m not trying to stay on the subway.” Ridership had begun to tick up: For the third week of March — the most recent for which statistics are available — the subway averaged about 3.2 million riders per weekday, about 58 percent of the prepandemic average. “In a mass shooting, there is a lot of attention focused on people who are killed or who are injured, and rightfully so,” she said. Subway ridership has been hobbled by the shift to remote work. Mayor Eric Adams had vowed to crack down on subway violence, and the shooting came amid what was already an increased police presence. And in an instant, it turned the subway — New York City’s quotidian icon — into a bloody scene of horror. “There is a heightened sense of insecurity that results from these type of attacks, because it is easy for us to relate to them, because we can see ourselves in them.” In 2021, rates of violent crime in the subway per million weekday passengers spiked almost across the board compared with 2019, before the pandemic. Their subway, once the target of mundane gripes over tardiness and trash, had become the latest symbol of a city frayed by violence.
Democrat Brian Benjamin pleads not guilty in Manhattan to several charges, as arrest creates political crisis for governor Kathy Hochul.
Hochul in September plucked Benjamin, then a state lawmaker, to serve as second-in-command when she became governor, taking over from Cuomo. Hochul was Cuomo’s lieutenant governor. While the legal process plays out, it is clear to both of us that he cannot continue to serve as lieutenant governor. He was released and bail was set at $250,000.

"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. High school student John Butsikaris was riding the other train when he saw a conductor urging everyone to get in. This person is dangerous," the Democrat said at a news conference just after noon. It wasn't immediately clear whether officers were already inside the station when the shootings occurred. Police were scouring the city for the shooter and trying to track down the renter of a van possibly connected to the violence. In another video, smoke and people pour out of a subway car, some limping. The Metropolitan Transportation Authority announced last fall that it had put security cameras in all 472 subway stations citywide, saying they would put criminals on an "express track to justice." 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. The federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives has completed an urgent trace to identify the gun's manufacturer, seller and initial owner. At least one rider collapsed on the platform. The shooter's motive was unknown.

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.
Thirteen people injured and 'several undetonated devices' were found as police search for suspect who fled scene, authorities say.
Officers were searching for the suspect, the police spokesperson said. I just hope they find the person.” The not knowing what’s going on – it’s crazy, it’s concerning,” he said. “That this could happen literally just a few feet from where you live it’s crazy. Perez was standing outside his building with neighbors. Police later said none were “active explosive devices”.

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.

La portion québécoise de 58 kilomètres de la ligne de transport d'électricité vers New York coûtera 1,14 milliard de dollars à Hydro-Québec.
À 10 000 mégawatts, la demande d’électricité pour des projets industriels est supérieure à la consommation industrielle actuelle, qui est de 8500 mégawatts, a précisé Sophie Brochu. La file des entreprises qui convoitent l’électricité québécoise continue de s’allonger, et des projets totalisant 10 000 mégawatts sont actuellement en attente, selon la présidente-directrice générale d’Hydro-Québec, Sophie Brochu. « Nous avons de grandes décisions à prendre », a dit Mme Brochu, qui était l’invitée du Conseil des relations internationales de Montréal lundi. Le contrat avec New York porte sur l’exportation de 9,45 térawattheures pour une période de 20 ans commençant en 2025. Même si les surplus sont chose du passé, le gouvernement québécois offre toujours des rabais pouvant atteindre 20 % sur le tarif des grandes entreprises qui investissent au Québec. GM et BASF, qui veulent investir à Bécancour dans les matériaux de batterie, pourraient bénéficier de ces tarifs réduits. Hydro-Québec a l’obligation de fournir de l’électricité pour toutes les demandes de branchement de 50 mégawatts et moins. Toute augmentation des coûts de plus de 15 % devra être avalisée par son conseil d’administration, indique la société d’État. Hydro-Québec a estimé les impacts tarifaires du projet sur des périodes de 20 ans et de 40 ans et soutient que, « pour l’ensemble de ces périodes, le projet ne génère pas d’impact à la hausse sur le tarif de transport ».

"My subway door opened into calamity. It was smoke and blood and people screaming," eyewitness Sam Carcamo told the Associated Press. He added that a billow of smoke poured out of the train once its doors opened.

People like working in their pajamas. But when employees don't return to office, the city economy feels the pain.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew the ball over the playground fence. Adams has so far proposed creating a joint city and state panel to study the future of work and its implications for the city. “The level of Holocaust denial right now is staggering. More about the asterisk in a moment. The story surfaced a decade ago, when Margot Wölk, then 95, was quoted as saying she had been a taster at Hitler’s bunker in occupied Poland. The title is what it is. The evening will be partly cloudy, with temps dropping to the low 50s. And the state has yet to move toward relaxing zoning regulations that hamper the conversion of office buildings to residential housing, including low-income units. Manhattan office buildings underwrote more than a quarter of the city’s property tax revenues before the pandemic, according to the state comptroller’s office. Even so, policymakers have barely begun to address what that could mean for schools, parks and the police, all of which depend on tax revenues. And Penguin Random House, the publishing house with roughly 2,500 employees in the New York City area, has no mandatory return-to-office plans at all.

New York City has seen a sharp rise in violent crime during the pandemic, including a string of seemingly random attacks on its subways. The gunman removed two canisters from his bag and opened them, sending smoke throughout the train car. “It's clear that this individual wanted to create terror and violence," he said. James was first linked to the scene after police found a U-Haul van parked on a Brooklyn street. Initially the police said he was viewed only as a "person of interest," having been linked by evidence to the crime scene. Register now for FREE unlimited access to Reuters.com
New York City police investigators have stressed they weren't sure whether the man, Frank R. James, was responsible for the shooting in Brooklyn on Tuesday.
“You got kids going in here now taking machine guns and mowing down innocent people,” James says. That key led investigators to James, who has addresses in Philadelphia and Wisconsin, NYPD Chief of Detectives James Essig said. Commuter Jude Jacques, who takes the D train to his job as a fire safety director some two blocks from the shooting scene, said he prays every morning but had a special request on Wednesday. The gunman sent off smoke grenades in a crowded subway car and then fired at least 33 shots with a 9 mm handgun, police said. One passenger, Jordan Javier, thought the first popping sound he heard was a book dropping. There’s nothing going to stop that,” James said in one video.

Lax gun laws and a constitutionally guaranteed right to bear arms have repeatedly stymied attempts to clamp down on the number of weapons in circulation, despite greater controls being favored by the majority of Americans. ABC News quoted police sources as saying at least five people were shot in the incident. According to NBC, citing NYPD officials and senior law enforcement officials, a man in a gas mask and orange construction vest may have tossed a smoke canister on the platform to distract the rush hour crowd.
A former lawyer for the city and his husband say they were denied coverage under the city's insurance plan because of a definition of infertility that ...
And that’s been the excuse that the insurance companies are using to deny them benefits.” And they weren’t going to talk to us about changing the policy.” Though lesbian couples and single women sometimes have to pay out-of-pocket costs first, most insurance policies also allow them to meet the definition of infertile through intrauterine insemination. Mr. Briskin began working for the city as an assistant district attorney in the New York County District Attorney’s Office in 2017 and left earlier this year. “But these are now benefits, that in a very important way, we’re not being given.” The Office of Labor Relations, the city department that handles employee insurance, did not respond to calls about their policy. “So they don’t meet this hyper-technical definition of infertility. “It’s mind blowing that in 2022 we’re still having this conversation about a policy that so clearly excludes gay men because of horribly antiquated views of homosexuality,” he said. We just don’t have the money.” Under the city’s insurance benefits policy, a covered person is only eligible for such services when they are deemed infertile. A former lawyer for New York City and his husband have filed a complaint against the city saying they were denied insurance coverage because of a definition of infertility that excludes gay men. A same-sex married couple said in a complaint filed Tuesday that the City of New York discriminated against them in denying them in vitro fertilization coverage under the city’s insurance plan for employees.
New York City's in vitro fertilization coverage benefits for city employees illegally discriminates against same-sex male couples, according to a charge ...
Corey Briskin and Nicholas Maggipinto say an outdated and discriminatory concept of "infertility" has prevented them from trying to have a child.
The couple said they are not interested in reaching a legal settlement with the city that doesn’t include a change in the policy. Briskin and Maggipinto are not the first gay men to tussle with insurers over IVF benefits. “You have policymakers who think a family consists of a man and a woman and two and a half children. He says his requests for coverage were denied, and that the insurance company, EmblemHealth, referred him to the website. Briskin and Maggipinto said that despite being lawyers, having a child through IVF has never been financially feasible without insurance coverage. On Tuesday, Briskin and Maggipinto filed a class-action complaint with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, alleging that the exclusion of same-sex male couples from IVF coverage violates federal and state civil rights laws. (Briskin recently left the office for a federal clerkship, but he is still covered by the city’s insurance plan through COBRA.) Many health plans that cover IVF services carve out same-sex couples because the plans tend to define intercourse in heterosexual and cisgender terms. A growing number of companies are offering fertility benefits to recruit and retain talent. Years slipped by as he and Maggipinto put a hold on trying to have a child. After getting married in 2016, Corey Briskin and Nicholas Maggipinto hoped to start a family. The Brooklyn-based couple figured their best shot at affording IVF would be through Briskin’s health plan as an employee of New York City, where he worked as an assistant district attorney starting in 2017.
