NYPD is searching for two individuals believed to be responsible for commandeering and derailing a subway train in the Briarwood section of Queens. The incident occurred shortly after midnight on Thursday, according to WPIX.

According to the NYPD, the event unfolded at the Briarwood subway station in the eponymous Briarwood neighborhood of Queens.

Law enforcement says the individuals gained entry to an empty train at the station and then took control of the vehicle, resulting in a collision that caused damage to the train.

No injuries related to the incident were reported.

Police are now asking for the public's assistance to help identify the two suspects: a man and a woman. The man was last seen on camera wearing a blue tank top and red shorts, and a female wearing an all-pink ensemble complete with a "pink shower cap," said the NYPD. Both suspects fled the scene after the crash.

Images of the suspects were released inside one of the train cars on Tuesday.
