Brooklyn subway station shooting: Suspect still at large after subway shooting - BBC News
At least 16 people are in hospital after the rush-hour shooting at a station in New York City.
Eyewitness reports have begun to trickle in from people who were at the train station where the incident took place.

One witness, identified only as Claire, was quoted by the New York Post as saying that she "lost count" of the amount of shots fired.

She added that the suspect - who was reportedly wearing an orange vest and gas mask - dropped "some kind of cylinder that sparked at the top".

Another witness, Sam Carcamo, told the AP news agency that his subway door "opened into calamity" at the station.

"It was smoke and blood and people screaming," he said, adding that he saw large amounts of smoke billowing from the train once the door opened.

A local man, Danny Mastrogiorgio, told the AP that he had just dropped his son off at school when he saw wounded passengers running up the station staircase. At least two had leg injuries.

"It was insane," he said.
