A man wanted in an attack on a Brooklyn subway train in which 10 people were injured in a shooting was arrested on Wednesday afternoon, a law enforcement official told the Associated Press.
Frank R. James, 62, was detained in Manhattan, the official said. Further details, including the arrest agency, were not immediately available.
Investigators said Tuesday afternoon they were looking for James, who is believed to have rented a van, possibly linked to the violence. Until Wednesday morning, New York authorities said he was a suspect in the shooting.
Authorities are investigating social media videos in which the 62-year-old denounced the United States as a racist place full of violence and criticized New York Mayor Eric Adams.
