The FDNY said they were called to the 36th Street subway station in Brooklyn’s Sunset Park neighborhood for smoke around 8:30 p.m. There, several people were found shot and the devices were discovered, FDNY said. According to a senior law enforcement official, the preliminary investigation shows that five people were shot and a possible smoke device was fired at the station. A second source also said that a person is in critical condition. Police said, according to a preliminary report, a male perpetrator who was probably wearing a gas mask and an orange construction vest escaped from the spot. The NYPD wrote on Twitter to avoid the area of 36th Street and 4th Avenue in Brooklyn.
