A day after bloody Brooklyn subway shooting, resilient NYC commuters return to the trains

NEW YORK — New Yorkers have places to be — even when a crazed gunman is on the loose.

The city’s subway system lurched back to life Wednesday morning, a day after a bloody attack on an N train near the 36th St. station in Brooklyn left 10 people with gunshot wounds and another 13 injured. The attacker strapped on a gas mask and released smoke canisters before he fired 33 shots in the train car, police said.

“That’s my neighborhood, it’s really hard because you have to get out everyday to go work,” said Damares Batista, 48, who regularly commutes along the same line as the shooting. “I just feel scared, a little scared. I see people on the train today they always on their phone but nobody was on the phone today everyone looking at each other.”
