A violent altercation on a moving A train resulted in a shooting at the Hoyt-Schermerhorn subway station in Downtown Brooklyn on Thursday evening, leaving one person with a bullet fatally lodged in his head. According to City Council member Lincoln Restler, a fight broke out on the train as it approached the station, and one man pulled out a gun. The other man managed to gain control of the weapon and shot the first man.
The police responded to the incident just before 5 p.m., during the height of rush hour, and a person of interest was taken into custody by 5:20 p.m. A firearm was also recovered, according to Mayor Eric Adams’ office.
The victim was transported to a nearby hospital in critical condition, and the police are investigating the motive for the attack and any potential relationship between the two individuals.
The incident has sparked further concerns about safety in the New York City subway system, which has been under extreme scrutiny in recent weeks. Last week, Gov. Kathy Hochul deployed the National Guard to check riders’ bags in an effort to deter crime and ease public fears.

Could have been so much worse. After all, the GOV just sent (the mayor didn’t ask) National Guard troops (yes, soldiers) to guard.
Phew
Interesting that this report doesn’t mention the race of the suspect or the victim. I hope the gun used was purchased legally. I don’t want Joe Biden or Beto O’Rourke to get upset. We don’t need any more lectures about the evils of the 2nd amendment.
Anyway, this is all fake news. Kathy Hochul sent the all powerful National Guard to make sure no weapons are brought down to the subway platform. Eric Adams and Eddie Caban have told us plantation owners that all violent crime committed by blacks in our subways IS ONLY A PERCEPTION!
Hmm, why does the color of the individual not surprise me 🤔
Investigate motive.?
Set him free!!!
NY is banana republic
What’s up with this wording “with a bullet fatally lodged in his head”
HE WAS KILLED! HE WAS SHOT!
Next, we’ll have, “His heart fatally stopped beating”, or “”his shoulders were fatally disconnected from his head”.
Reminds of the ridiculous headlines when a pro palestine protester shoved a man in LA, resulting in the man having a fatal head-on collision with the sidewalk.
“The victim was transported to a nearby hospital in critical condition ” … The victim ?????!!!!!!
Btw, fatally usually means “resulting in death”
israel has been living and dealing with violence and terror from the beginning. America is just not ready for what is coming. usa will have to get much more strict and preventative in all spheres of public areas and events. things aren’t going to go back to what was once……
This is a perfect Kyle Rittenhouse defense. Everyone should praise the shooter as a paragon of virtue. Fox news should endlessly discuss him on their shows because he is the reason why we need the second amendment.
It is only too bad that he wasn’t an immigrant and then they would have been able to blame all violence in the city on Biden.
The dead black man was the aggressor. The initial victim wrestled his gun away and pumped him with his own gun and his own bullets. He bought his own death right. The video clip was astonishing. This perp accosted the victim for no apparent reason. Passengers video taped the whole episode and posted it. It was horrifying indeed.

The dead guy pummeled him and beat him mercilessly and then he was laid to rest. The shooter will not even be charged: EVEN IN NYC.
Nut case, nut case,
please stand still.
with no brains,
you got your fill.
