BREAKING UPDATE: Frank James, a person of interest in Tuesday's mass shooting at an NYC subway station, has an address in Philadelphia, officials revealed:
Another 19 or so others were hurt in the chaos that followed the shooting aboard the Manhattan-bound N train at the 36th Street and Fourth Avenue station in Sunset Park around 8:30 a.m. The gunman was still on the loose seven hours later.
Five of the gunshot victims were said to be critically injured. Details on the nature of their wounds weren't immediately clear. No fatalities have been reported. It's not clear what kind of gun was used, nor was it immediately known how many shots were fired. Witnesses said the entire train car smelled of gasoline, and MTA sources described a similar smell too but the law enforcement officials said no gas cans were found.
The smoke canister, and harrowing video from the train, prompted early concerns about possible explosive devices connected to the case, but NYPD Commissioner Keechant Sewell assured New Yorkers in an early afternoon news conference that there are no known explosive devices on any subway trains in the city at this time.
