NEW YORK — The suspect wanted for the Brooklyn subway shooting spree was arrested Wednesday, ending a search for the man who blasted 10 passengers a day earlier before fleeing, the New York Police Department announced.
Frank R. James was arrested in Manhattan on a federal warrant and will face a hearing in federal court, with a police source indicating he was busted after East Village residents spotted the wanted man and called police. Twitter postings showed the suspect in handcuffs, wearing a blue shirt and sweatpants.
“My fellow New Yorkers, we got him,” said Mayor Eric Adams. “We got him. We cannot thank the men and women of the New York Police Department enough.”
