People panic when they hear what they think are fireworks but are actually gunshots, and the doors of the train vehicle have been closed.
In a desperate attempt to be allowed out, the passenger bangs on the door of the adjacent carriage.
A man clutching his coffee closely appears to be dazed as the train pulls into the platform, as others tend to the bleeding victims on the ground.
Ten people were killed by a gunman on New York City’s N train during morning rush hour, which was captured on cell phone video and described by eyewitnesses.
The suspect, a heavyset, short Black male, was wearing a construction vest, a gas mask, and a smoke canister from his backpack at the time of the attack, according to police. A big manhunt was still ongoing as of Tuesday evening, and he was still at large.
Yav Montano, a passenger in the car at the time of the attack, told CNN that “as the smoke flared up it started to engulf everything.”
“There was a lot of blood trailing on the floor… in the moment I did not think that it was a shooting because it sounded like fireworks,” he continued. “All I saw were people trampling over each other, trying to get through to the door.”
In order to get to their destination, people rushed to disembark the train when it arrived at Brooklyn’s 36th street station. However, an announcer instructed them to take the R train on the other side of the platform.
According to Sam Carmano of the train, “My subway door opened into, just like calamity, and then it was people, just running to get away from whatever was happening, and then it was smoke and blood and people screaming.”
Swarms of police, fire engines, and ambulances rushed to the scene, as authorities sealed off several blocks of the normally lively commercial neighbourhood.
Locals in the nation’s oldest city, who were already alarmed by an uptick in violent crime, said the episode had only increased their anxiety.
This is the first time Anna Marin has seen smoke billowing and people fleeing from a subway station since she dropped her son at school.
Due to the lockout, she had to wait for several hours before she could get her child from school.
“I’m a little shocked. And I’m hoping that it gets better because I’m noticing it’s happening all over New York City,” she said.
