Bang Bang

The second subway shooting this month.
I really don’t think about that kind of thing too much as I’m riding around, but I do always wonder what the conductors mean when they say that a “police investigation” is holding the train in the station or rerouting us. That, or “sick passenger” — come on, MTA. You can’t think we buy that explanation. Just tell us what’s going on. Because I’m in the rear of the train just assuming it’s a jumper anyway.
A friend of mine was on the 9 when it ran over someone, back in the day, and apparently they only admitted what actually happened when they had to evacuate the train and walk everyone back to the previous station. Has this happened to anyone else?
