Three days after a man attacked a Brooklyn N train full of commuters with smoke bombs and bullets, Mayor Eric Adams Friday formally thanked all of the frontline workers who helped New Yorkers through the worst shooting the subway has experienced in many years.
“I want to thank every single MTA employee for their entire commitment, dedication and service. Your actions are indicative of what’s great about the service that you deliver every day, in general, and specifically, the service you deliver during times of crisis,” Adams said. “When bullets were flying – 33 to be exact – you stayed calm, you stayed focused, and you saved lives. Thanks to you, no passenger was left behind, no lives were lost. And thanks to you, our city keeps running every day, day after day.
