NEW YORK — The New York Police Department canvassed a Brooklyn neighborhood for video footage Tuesday as investigators hunted the fugitive gunman who slipped away after shooting 10 passengers on a crowded morning subway train, sources told the New York Daily News.
Police launched an immediate hunt for footage from above-ground cameras, both city-owned and privately owned, as the search for the fugitive continued hours after the 8:30 a.m. shootings on a train beneath Sunset Park.
“We’re asking individuals to be very vigilant and alert,” said Gov. Kathy Hochul at a news conference three hours after the unprovoked attack where a total of 16 people were injured in the chaos, including five left in critical but stable condition.
