Brooklyn Subway Shooting: Police Identify a Person of Interest

The situation at the Brooklyn subway station is still fluid. I will update as much as I can.

Pictures from a Brooklyn subway station show floors soaked in blood with many people on the ground:

An NYPD spokeswoman confirmed to Fox News Digital that a shooting took place at the 36th St. station in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, but she did not immediately have information on how many people were wounded and whether a suspect had been taken into custody.FDNY told Fox News that firefighters responded to a call for smoke in D N R lines train station. Upon arrival, units discover multiple people shot and several undetonated devices at same location. It continues to be an active scene.

Person of Interest

Possible U-Haul Truck Connection

From CNN:

Investigators in New York City are looking for a U-Haul that is allegedly connected to Tuesday’s Brooklyn subway shooting, according to internal NYPD emails viewed by CNN.The emails do not spell how the van is connected to the shooting.In the emails, top commanders shared a stock image of a white U-Haul cargo van asking officers to be on lookout for a similar van with an Arizona license plate #AL31408 that authorities believe is “connected with” the subway shooting in which 10 people were struck by gunfire.The emails were widely sent to NYPD officers and detectives. In one directive, officers were instructed that if they come across the U-Haul van and it is occupied that they should “take extreme precautions” in attempting to stop it, adding that if the van is unoccupied to notify commanders.According to another directive, officers are told that “if this vehicle is observed moving and occupied, conduct a traffic stop and detain occupants.”U-Haul says it’s “working closely with authorities to ensure they have any and all available information” related to the search for a rental van and its possible connection to the shooting.“Law enforcement has alerted us to its search for a rental van and its possible connection to a suspect in today’s incident in New York City,” Sebastien Reyes, U-Haul’s vice president of communications, told CNN in a statement. “We are working closely with authorities to ensure they have any and all available information to meet their needs.”

Shooting Took Place on Train

The videos show the shooting took place on the train. The people on the live stream I’m watching said people said there was some sort of dispute on the train. The smoke came from a device dropped inside the train, too.

New Numbers

Via live stream: 10 people shot, 16 total injured. The other injuries include smoke inhalation and getting trampled as people fled the train.

No Cameras

The cameras aren’t working at the hub, which I understand is one of the major hubs in the city.
