Police close in on alleged shooter, Frank R. James

A 62-year-old man by the name of Frank R. James has been linked with the recent subway train shootings in Brooklyn.

Officials have not dismissed the idea of the incident being a terrorist strike.

James, the alleged shooter, who was wearing a gas mask and a construction vest, opened fire on a crowded subway train hurting at least ten people at random

In a news conference on April 12, the New York Police Department claimed they had identified him as a suspect and were on his tail from now onwards.

During the press briefing, officials stated that James had links to both Wisconsin and Philadelphia.

James allegedly posted suspicious social media remarks regarding Mayor Eric Adams, prompting the agency to beef up the mayor’s security detail.

At the site, police discovered Glock 17 pistol, three extended magazines for the firearm, hatchet, gas canistersand the key to U-Haul vehicle.
Officers subsequently linked the key to the vehicle, which James had hired in Philadelphia and that was the complete expose.
