Police Search for Suspects in Subway Train Crash

New York City police are searching for two suspects who allegedly stole and crashed an empty subway train at the Briarwood station shortly after midnight on September 12, 2024. The individuals, described as a woman in a pink shower cap and a man in a blue tank top, managed to operate the train briefly before colliding it with another parked train, causing damage but no injuries. Surveillance footage shows the suspects entering the unoccupied train and fleeing the scene afterward. This incident adds to concerns amid a broader effort to enhance subway safety, as New York has seen a 45% increase in crime year-over-year. Authorities have appealed for information regarding the suspects, who remain at large. The investigation is ongoing, with police urging anyone with tips to contact Crime Stoppers.
