New York City Subway Shooting: Suspect with Gun, Possible Explosives Wounds 5

Five people have been shot and injured in the New York City subway system Tuesday morning just prior to 8:30 AM, according to emerging reports.

UPDATE 2: The Associated Press reports at least 10 people were shot and “29 in all were treated at hospitals for gunshot wounds, smoke inhalation and other conditions.” Police also reportedly “found a rental truck possibly connected to the violence.”

UPDATE: CNN reports FDNY spokesperson Amanda Farinacci indicates “Eight people were shot and eight others were injured following a shooting at a Brooklyn subway this morning,”

The New York Post reports police think the attacker set off a “smoke grenade” before discharging the weapon.

The Post notes “at least five people were shot in the third car of the train and others were injured by smoke inhalation. A pregnant woman was among those hospitalized.”

Original story continues below:

NBC New York identifies the location of the incident as the Brooklyn subway station and notes that “several law enforcement sources said the shooter may have thrown a device before opening fire.”

The New York Times reports while investigators are unsure if explosives were detonated during the attack they have ascertained since “that no active explosive devices had been found at the scene.”

Democrat NY Lt. Gov. Brian Benjamin Arrested on Bribery Conspiracy Indictment

Democrat New York Lieutenant Governor Brian Benjamin was arrested Tuesday on a federal bribery conspiracy indictment, according to ABC News 7.

The indictment against Benjamin will reportedly be unsealed at a noon press conference on Tuesday. AP reported:


Benjamin was accused of participating in a scheme to obtain campaign contributions from a real estate developer in exchange for Benjamin’s agreement to use his influence as a state senator to get a $50,000 grant of state funds for a nonprofit organization the developer controlled.

[…]

The indictment said Benjamin and others acting at his direction or on his behalf also engaged in a series of lies and deceptions to cover up the scheme.

They falsified campaign donor forms, misled municipal regulators and provided false information in vetting forms Benjamin submitted while he was being considered to be appointed as lieutenant governor, the indictment said.

Democrat New York Lt. Gov. Brian Benjamin Resigns After Arrest on Bribery Conspiracy Indictment

Democrat New York Lieutenant Governor Brian Benjamin resigned from office hours after his arrest on Tuesday on a federal bribery conspiracy indictment, Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY) announced.

Hochul, who selected Benjamin to serve as her Lt. Gov. less than a year ago, said:


I have accepted Brian Benjamin’s resignation effective immediately. While the legal process plays out, it is clear to both of us that he cannot continue to serve as Lieutenant Governor. New Yorkers deserve absolute confidence in their government, and I will continue working every day to deliver for them.

Benjamin’s resignation came hours after he surrendered to federal authorities and was arrested and charged with one count of federal bribery, one count of wire fraud, one county of conspiracy to commit those crimes, and two counts of falsifying records.

As the Associated Press reported:


Benjamin was accused of participating in a scheme to obtain campaign contributions from a real estate developer in exchange for Benjamin’s agreement to use his influence as a state senator to get a $50,000 grant of state funds for a nonprofit organization the developer controlled.

[…]

The indictment said Benjamin and others acting at his direction or on his behalf also engaged in a series of lies and deceptions to cover up the scheme.

You forgot some of the most restrictive gun laws in the nation.

Bet his ass would have been shot dead on the spot here. Never know who has a gun round these parts anymore. Makes criminals think twice.

Thanks Jim. I kept waiting yesterday, but no news.

Not sure when, but they busted this scumbag.

Turns out he has already been on the FBI's terror radar list, which of course is appearing to be more and more useless. Only time I ever hear of it is after a shooting.
