New York – Multiple people have been shot in a Brooklyn subway station and several undetonated devices were also found at the location, according to fire officials and law enforcement sources. They stress the investigation is preliminary.
A sweeping law enforcement investigation is underway and people are being asked to avoid the area.
The FDNY says it responded to a call for smoke at the 36th Street and Fourth Avenue station, which serves the D, N and R lines in Sunset Park around 8:30 a.m. and found multiple gunshot victims.
No details were immediately available on the devices.
The NYPD warned New Yorkers to avoid the area and to expect emergency vehicles and delays.
Photos posted to social media showed people bloodied on the platform, and Citizen app footage showed a heavy law enforcement presence at the scene.
The MTA says trains on the D, N and R lines were delayed amid an unspecified investigation.
