New York man, 45, shot dead on subway: Cops hunt three suspects who fled after attack

A man died after being shot on a subway train in New York City early Friday morning.

Police said the 45-year-old man was shot in the torso on a southbound D train at the 182nd-183rd Street station in the Bronx shortly after 5 a.m.

The man was unconscious and unresponsive when officers arrived at the scene and emergency services took him to St. Barnabas Hospital, where he died.

Police are now searching for three suspects believed to be involved in the shooting, sources told the New York Post that a verbal dispute led to the incident.

The station was closed in the morning while authorities conducted their investigation.

Footage captured at the scene shows emergency crews performing chest compressions on the man as he lay on the platform.

EMS crews then place him on a stretcher and rush him out of the station to a waiting ambulance.

a neighbor told him ABC7: ‘I know I should avoid this station because it’s usually a dangerous station, so I usually take the station in front or behind and travel from there, it’s terrible. The train is not safe.

It comes after a separate incident last month in which one man was killed and five others injured after gunfire erupted at another Bronx train station.

Police said violence broke out on the 4 train platform at the Mount Eden Avenue station and a 35-year-old man was shot and killed.

The survivors, three men and two women, were taken to hospital with gunshot wounds, but all were in stable condition.

Langel Jones, 16, was detained by officers after the shooting and ordered held without bail on murder charges.

Police are now pursuing a 15-year-old who they believe also shot at the station, and are also holding a 14-year-old boy, according to the Daily News.
