“The NYPD’s targeted patrols at end-of-line stations demonstrated again their value early today when an alert officer recognized a person wanted for robbing a subway rider and arrested her.  Additional overnight policing by both the NYPD and MTAPD, combined with cameras in every station, means those who prey on transit riders can expect to be caught and face justice.”
