Tear gas and gun smoke: I smell Ramadan in the air

At least 13 injured in Brooklyn subway shooting, undetonated devices found

It’s too soon to say who’s responsible, of course, but our Muslim friends do have a history of celebrating Ramadan in this joyful manner.


At least 13 people were injured, including seven who were shot, when a suspect set off a smoke grenade and unleashed gunfire on a Brooklyn subway train during Tuesday morning rush hour, the NYPD and law-enforcement sources told The Post.

The bloody attack broke out around 8:30 a.m. on a Manhattan-bound N train at the 36th Street station in Sunset Park, where authorities discovered several undetonated devices, FDNY and police said. 

The suspect, who was dressed in apparent construction garb similar to an MTA worker and donning a gas mask, according to a witness, is believed to have set off the smoke grenade moments before gunfire erupted, police sources told The Post.
