NYPD orders conductor to seal passengers in with murderer!
NEW YORK - November 23, 2009 - In the twice-remade film, "The Taking of Pelham 123," armed men take passengers on a New York City subway train hostage.
On Saturday, the NYPD effectively informed a train conductor to seal passengers in a subway car with a murderer.
Apparently, creating potential hostage situations is a new crimestopping tactic.
"Nearly 30 petrified passengers were trapped on a midtown hell train yesterday with a knife-wielding madman and the blood-soaked body of a straphanger he just stabbed to death in a senseless argument over a seat," The New York Post reported Sunday. "The Bronx-bound D train came to a screeching halt at around 2 a.m. in the tunnel between the Rockefeller Center and Seventh Avenue stations, when a rider yanked the emergency cord after watching the carnage unfold."
The paper adds, "The group of riders were stuck in the car behind locked doors as a pool of blood began to form around the dying man and the suspect, Gerardo Sanchez, 37, of The Bronx, coldly stood over him. Eventually, Sanchez strolled to one end of the car, and the rest of the passengers fled to the opposite end."
