The Nation : 3 Killed in Separate N.Y. Subway Attacks

In what authorities called the worst night of subway violence in memory, altercations in three New York City stations left three men dead in less than four hours. A Brooklyn man on his way home was stabbed several times in a station there and died in a hospital within an hour. Police said he apparently had been robbed. Later, in another Brooklyn station, two men argued on a platform and one shot the other to death. In Manhattan, one of two would-be robbers in a Times Square station was stabbed to death, allegedly by the intended victim. “This was really a mind-boggling night,” Al O’Leary of the Transit Authority said.
