Shooting at Brooklyn subway results in at least 13 wounded

| April 12, 2022

The New York Police Department (NYPD) reports a shooting that took place at one of Brooklyn’s subway stations. This attack occurred during a busy part of the morning commuting period. Although the New York City Fire Department announced that at least 13 were injured, the NYPD was not immediately able to verify that number or how many got shot and if there were any fatalities. The investigation is ongoing and the individual responsible for this has not been detained as of this posting.

From Fox News:

FDNY told Fox News that firefighters responded to a call for smoke in the D-N-R lines. Upon arrival, units discover multiple people shot and several undetonated devices at the same location. It continues to be an active scene.

“In regard to the multiple people shot at the 36th Street subway station in Brooklyn, there are NO active explosive devices at this time,” NYPD News tweeted in an update published at 9:53 a.m. ET. “Any witnesses are asked to call @NYPDTips at #800577TIPS . Please stay clear of the area. More provided information when available.”

A law enforcement source told Fox News Digital the suspect is described as a Black male, wearing an MTA uniform, a gas mask and “carrying a bookbag.” NYPD Counterterrorism units are responding to the scene, while additional units, including police K9s and heavy weaponry, have been deployed to subway stations around New York City, the high-ranking law enforcement source added.

A graphic photo circulated Twitter Tuesday morning showing several people lying on the blood soaked floor of the station. One man applied pressure to what appeared to be another man’s leg wound. A red item of clothing was tied around the wound to slow bleeding. A puddle of blood was seen next to a second man grasping his cell phone, as backpacks and purses were strewn across the platform.

Authorities are searching for a suspect who shot multiple people inside a Brooklyn subway on Monday and left behind several undetonated devices. According to a law enforcement source briefed on the investigation, preliminary information indicated a suspect was dressed in construction attire.

This has all the earmarks of an action by the Religion of Peace. Or, it could just be another Monday in the shithole of New York.

If I’m wrong I’m wrong, but given a trend Mister Occam’s principle be a thing.

I hadn’t considered that. But, it’s just as likely.

Law of Total Probabilities. I watched a couple hours of this dude’s youtube last nite, it’s a shame as he actually had some good ideas and salient points about the self-destruction of Americanized-African heritage peoples. (to allude to his brand of speech)

Altho, I fundamentally disagree with ethno-nationalism but being a free market guy if it is desired and formed outside of the American system, in theory I can’t find a reason against it, nonaggression principle dictates neutrality. (maybe?) He does make a reasoned argumentation for this to be a goal.

Of course hate does some fantastically awful things to emotional regulation, then crap like this happens. I see the very small slice of ‘black’ terror groups and ideologies lionizing this guy, perhaps committing copycat actions.

The whole thing will become a what-aboutism/both sides stupid mess that I do not wanna partake in but with ineptitude in; media, social leaders, politicians, law enforcement, etc; this is just gonna get worser

Praying for the safety of the victims and for this bag of excrement to be found and dealt with by any means necessary.

‘Tie the season of violence, false flaggery. Keep your heads on a swivel and avoid target rich environments.

If i was the cop who found said POS, i would be praying, “please, please, PLEASE point anything at me, doesn’t even need to be a weapon.” Case would be closed right then and there.

But….but….but….I thought gunz was ILLEGAL in New Yawk Shitty? I know! Let’s pass ANOTHER anti-gunz law! That’ll teach that criminal shootist!
(obviously spoken with tongue firmly planted in both cheeks)

They is, especially when you shoot random people with them.

We are just lucky it wasn’t one of them ghost gunz. Or, the shit would have really hit the fan.

I’m watching the press briefing and the blood hasn’t even dried and the NY Gov is already pushing gun control.

Herbert J Messkit

How about gas masks and explosive devices too. And when will these jackasses learn to repeat the questions for us at home

I’m tired of trying to explain to libtards why criminals are called “criminals.” Now, I just point and laugh.

Per the press briefing this morning, the ATF has traced Big Frankie’s Glock’s serial number. He purchased it from a gun shop in Ohio back in 2011. Since in his videos he says he has been a mental patient in a mental facility, he likely lied on his 4473 just like Hunter Biden did. This is especially true if he had been involuntarily detained on a 72 hour hold or otherwise. So much for those background checks that are supposed to prevent loonies from buying firearms.

I’ve heard in the past that being in the BATF means you were in the ass-bottom of your class at the FBI Academy!

Honestly, they’re all fucking worthless.

The U.S. Sun gave a description of the shooter…even mentioned the race of the alleged shooter……GASP!

How very un-newsmanlike of them. /sarc

Authorities are searching for a Black male suspect, about 5 feet 5 inches tall, heavily built, who was wearing a gas mask, a green construction vest and a gray sweatshirt.”

Nicely played.

All of those Gun Control Laws in NYC and all they did was to guarantee that soulless ghoul a free fire zone of unarmed Victims.

7711C20

NY state and city with some of the toughest gun laws in the nation and democratic DAs that refuse to prosecute and jail gun offenses, with the support of the democratic party. Ever notice gun crimes are predominantly with illegal guns not by those with legal guns.

rgr769

Usually, it is not the gun that is “illegal.” It is that the person possessing it is doing so illegally, either because it was stolen from its lawful owner or because the possessor is a convicted felon or otherwise prohibited from possessing firearms. But then those disposed to commit murder or mayhem don’t give a shit about gun laws.

A Proud Infidel®™

Absolutely, when was the last time anybody saw the criminals lining up to turn THEIR guns in as soon as a new law was passed?

Fyrfighter

well, they do tend to use “buy-backs” to get rid of guns they’ve used in crimes, since they’re usually “no questions asked”

KoB

If only Noo Yawk Chitty had some Commen Sense Gunz Control Laws, this tragedy could have been prevented. And by Commen Sense Gunz Control Laws, I’m speaking of ones like they have in Kennesaw, Georgia, where the people are required to have a gun.

A Proud Infidel®™

Yeah, anybody wanna compare the Violent Crime rates of say, Chicago or NYC to that of Kennesaw GA, especially those done with Firearms? Bueller?

jeff LPH 3 63-66

the port authority of nynj elevated their eoc to assist nyc and pa oem. all papd counterterrorism teams moved into the manhattan path system. Got this from my friend whose brother works for the port authority of nynj. Was holding my cell phone with one hand texting with the other so hence the lack of capital letters.

Seems like the press is over-playing this. Any weekend in Chicago has a bigger body count. And I noticed ABC reported the shooter had a .38 caliber gun with an extended magazine! Why do ignorant people rate such credibility?

rgr769

Actually, it was a 9 mm Glock with an extended magazine. The shooter apparently had at least two 30 round extended magazines. He fired 33 shots until one of the magazines jammed the gun. Then he dropped the gun and his backpack and fled the train.

David

Reports say he is in custody.

As many reports as there are of extra-large (ie: 30 round pistol mags) jamming, one would think their use by the criminal set should be encouraged. Think I’d rather face someone with a huge jam-mag than one with a nice standard 100% reliable Mec-Gar mag.

rgr769

Use of that knowledge regarding the gun jamming tendency of extra-large capacity magazines would require a larger capacity brain housing group, something higher than an IQ of 85. So, I don’t think these predator pavement dwellers need much encouragement to use these junk non-standard mags.

Sapper3307

The suspect already has mugshots on file,,, priceless.

Maybe we should invest in one of these

Maybe it can be duplicated for a less eye watering amount.

Only observation ol’ Poe can make is that with all these TAH articles, serially featuring perps of a certain persuasion, is that TAH is starting to resemble television commercials… 😉

The suspect Frank R. James (62 yrs old) is a mental patient. He had nine prior arrests in New York from 1992 to 1998 (once for committing a criminal sex act) and three arrests in New Jersey.
He bought the Glock he used in the mass shooting in Ohio in 2011. He should not have been able to do so because he was both a mental patient and a convicted felon.
He was not residing in New York at the time of the attack. He has current addresses in Wisconsin and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He rented a U-Haul in Philadelphia and drove it to New York.
He was wearing an MTA uniform and had a bag that contained 4 smoke grenades, a Glock with extended magazines, and a hatchet. He used two of the grenades in the assault; the other two were recovered unused.
A witness claims James was standing in a corner of the subway car mumbling to himself before he opened fire.

SidneyBroadshead

Ten people were shot and another 13 people suffered related injuries ranging from smoke inhalation to falls and panic attacks.
The police recovered the keys to the UHaul truck Frank R. James had driven to New York City and later found the abandoned vehicle.
James was arrested afterwards because they received a tip that he was eating at a McDonalds. He supposedly called the tipline himself. He was later arrested during a canvassing of the neighborhood.
There is no known motive at this time. Since he is mentally ill, the motivation may be illogical or non-existant.

SidneyBroadshead

Frank R. James profile. He appears to be a paranoid racist who was triggered by the Eric Adams case, the war in Ukraine and crime in NYC.
