The NYPD, FBI, and other authorities are scouring video and talking to witnesses to find the man who shot several people on a subway train.
Candace McCowan speaks with a mom about the scene on the streets immediately after the incident.
Despite recent upgrades to the surveillance system within the MTA, there were no working cameras in the 36th Street station.Former NYPD Commissioner Bill Bratton talks to Eyewitness News about potential next steps after Tuesday's mass shooting in the subway. Shell casings were recovered on the train and on the platform, along with a handgun and three extended round magazines. One in the gun jammed, which is believed to have saved lives."This perpetrator dropped those smoke cans, if that's what they are, and shot around, and then exited from that point, he's not going to stay on there if there's smoke on there, even if he has the filter mask," retired NYPD Chief of Detectives Robert Boyce said.
As has been the case in recent attacks, like San Bernardino in 2015, officials are often slow to call something an"act of terror" until investigators find evidence that clearly connects an act of violence with a political or ideological motive - the so-called"nexus to terrorism," according to ABC News contributor Rich Frankel, who used to head the FBI's NY Joint Terrorism Task Force.
