Frank James now considered a suspect in Brooklyn subway

The subway station at the center of Tuesday's shooting reopened to the public Wednesday morning.

Trains were stopping at the 36th Street station in Brooklyn, according to the Metropolitan Transportation Authority agency that runs the subway system.

Passengers were seen in videos pouring out of a subway car at the station during Tuesday's attack.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams' security has been increased, the mayor's spokesperson, Fabien Levy, tweeted Tuesday night. Levy wrote that Frank James has "made past comments" about Adams.

The extra security measures were taken "out of an abundance of caution," Levy added.

Frank James appears to have posted a series of videos online in recent weeks in which he airs a host of grievances, including some directed at New York City Mayor Eric Adams. The man who appears to be James does not seem to threaten Adams, although he does complain about the number of homeless people in New York City and criticizes the mayor's policies.

The man also commented on how easy he felt it would be to commit crimes in the subway system, regardless of an increase in police presence.

Other topics touched on in the videos include Russian President Vladimir Putin, the war in Ukraine, and various personal grievances with acquaintances.

A spokesman for New York Mayor Eric Adams said Frank James was not in police custody after he was named a suspect in the shooting Wednesday morning.

"He is NOT in NYPD custody at this time," Adams' press secretary Fabien Levy said on Twitter.

The NYPD tweeted: "Frank Robert James fired numerous gunshots inside an 'N' line subway car at 36th St & 4th Ave subway station causing serious injuries to 10 people. Anyone with info about the incident or his whereabouts should contact @NYPDTips or call 1-800-577-TIPS."
