Frank James, the suspect in the Brooklyn subway shooting, was arrested Wednesday afternoon in the East Village.
James is suspected of setting off smoke grenades and firing a handgun 33 times on a crowded subway train making its way toward the 36th Street station in Brooklyn's Sunset Park neighborhood. The attack left 29 people injured, including 10 who were shot, though none of the injuries appear to be life-threatening, officials said. Five of the victims were young people commuting to school, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul said.
James, who is 62-years-old, was taken into custody on Wednesday on 1st Avenue between 7th and 8th Streets after a by-stander recognized him and called police.
