Images released by the NYPD earlier Tuesday showed the alleged suspect boarding a Bronx-bound 2 train shortly after the assault. The NYPD says the man wanted in connection with a deadly assault inside the Jay Street subway station in downtown Brooklyn is now in custody. He was taken to New York-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. His name has not yet been released as police work to notify his family.

According to law enforcement sources, the 66-year-old man was on a southbound F train at the Delancey-Essex Streets station at around 6:15 p.m. on Sept. 20 when he was attacked.

The violent blow caused the victim to briefly lose consciousness, according to authorities, though he refused medical attention at the scene.

The area around Hudson Yards train station is once again open to the public and operating after a bomb threat led the NYPD to evacuate the area Friday evening, police said.

"This seems completely ridiculous," posted visuallyblind. "I didn't personally witness the crash, but my friend who was coming over at the time did. Biker was in bike lane and Tesla came flying down the street at 50+mph and ran straight through the [cyclist]. NYPD will pull out all the stops around here to ticket bikers, but it's a completely law free zone for cars."

Transit police are investigating a stabbing on board a Bronx subway train Tuesday night that left a man seriously injured. According to police sources, the incident took place at around 10:42 p.m. on Sept. 30 on a northbound 4 train at the 149 Street-Grand Concourse station. While authorities did not give a motive for the attack, they say a male suspect attacked the victim, a 26-year-old man, as the train pulled into the station.

According to the NYPD, the 30-year-old man was on the tracks on the B and C line at the station at West 96th Street and Central Park West when an oncoming train hit him around 7:05 a.m. Monday. Police said the train operator saw the man on the tracks but was not able to stop the train in time. Police said the man was pronounced dead on the scene around 7:30 a.m.

Police officials say they are expecting a surge in gridlock, and in turn subway ridership, throughout Manhattan over the coming week. Roads are expected to be closed, and traffic is expected to be slowed as world leaders, including President Donald Trump, are expected to descend on the Big Apple. With the increase in commuters surrounding such a high-profile event, cops are asking the public to be mindful of their surroundings and immediately contact the NYPD if they see something suspicious.

As a lifelong New Yorker, I am revolted by the idea of the militarization of our streets, Tisch said. As long as I have the honor of serving as the Police Commissioner of the city of New York, I will be very clear with anyone, with all of you, with the Attorney General, with whoever wants to talk to me about it, about the fact that the NYPD: We've got this, we don't need, or want the federal government's help here in that way.

A double stabbing in Brooklyn's Cypress Hills neighborhood early Friday left a 30-year-old man dead and another man hospitalized, police said.

A 30-year-old man who had been stabbed in the armpit was later pronounced dead, police said.

BROOKLYN, NY - A thief made off with hundreds of dollars in cash and a wallet loaded with credit cards after snatching a 66-year-old man's coat inside a Sheepshead Bay mosque Thursday evening, police said. The brazen theft happened around 7:40 p.m. at the Islamic center located at 2812 Voorhies Avenue, where the unidentified suspect entered the mosque and grabbed the unattended coat before fleeing in an unknown direction. The victim's wallet inside the coat contained $700 in cash, six credit cards, and other personal items, officials said.

The violent arrest shocked bystanders, who said the NYPD cops completely overreacted to a low-level cycling offense. 'They were just fucking brutalizing the poor kid. Three cops to one person, the way they picked him up was crazy,' said Jesus, who works nearby and declined to share his last name. The heated incident comes as NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch has escalated enforcement against people on bikes and e-bikes this year by increasing low-level offenses to criminal summonses.
