Last week, two NYPD Chief of Transit Public Safety Officers arrested a thief for jostling a subway passenger’s backpack. Thanks to their swift response, the passenger kept her belongings and the would-be thief was arrested!

Two thieves thought they could get away with stripping a stolen vehicle and loading the parts into their car in the Bronx. Fortunately, our vigilant NYPD Chief of Transit Anti-Terrorism Unit cops were nearby, observed what was happening, and arrested them before they could get away.

We understand subway riders in NYC are a fast-moving bunch, but we appreciate those who took a few moments out of their commute to speak to our Bronx Transit team on various safety and crime prevention measures. Great community engagement!

Shortly after a straphanger’s phone was almost taken from her, Police Officer Fermin of your District 33 team was on the case - searching the surrounding area and quickly tracking down the teenage culprits. Well done!

Transit cops are renowned for spotting a face in a sea of faces. Sharp eyes and great alertness by these officers when they recognized a man wanted for groping a straphanger last month. Quick work and an impactful apprehension by this District 1 team.

Stand clear of the closing [jail cell] doors, please. As the weekend rolled in, our Manhattan NYPD Chief of Transit Response Team was vigilantly patrolling the Delancey Street Station and saw a man jump the turnstile. They quickly realized he was wanted for a rape and arrested him.

At exactly 10:13 this morning, in the shadow of the Freedom Tower - 2 and 4-legged runners from the Transit Bureau set off on the 23rd annual NYPD Memorial 5k run. A gorgeous day for a worthwhile cause!

Every day, NYPD Chief of Transit officers are strategically deployed in the subway system to ensure that New Yorkers reach their destinations safely. While on patrol, officers observed a man evading the fare. After a brief struggle, they took him into custody and recovered a loaded gun.

Subway surfing is a reckless act that has already taken the lives of too many young New Yorkers. Watch and share this PSA with those you care about. One conversation could save a life.

The subway environment presents unique challenges for law enforcement, but these officers displayed true understanding of the underground, and used their know-how to bring about a safe outcome to this incident. Well done!
