Crime stats can't quantify the fear that Sharon Robinson says she still carries everyday after being attacked on an N train.
NYPD's latest crime statistics can't quantify the fear that Sharon Robinson says she still carries everyday after being attacked on a Brooklyn N train. Morgan Norwood has more.The NYPD's new statistics show crime is falling in New York, including murders, rapes, robberies, shootings and transit crime, but that's little consolation for one woman in Brooklyn who was beaten on a subway.She hopped on the train late at night, headed home to Coney Island.
"I was tapped on my shoulder by this person, asked me if I'm okay," she said. "I told him, I turned to him, I told him leave me alone. I didn't yell.""Next thing you know, I got bussed right in the month, punched by this unknown male unprovoked," she said.Eyewitness News is tracking crime and safety across New York City and in your neighborhood
The suspect, a young man, was seen in surveillance images dressed in all black with his mask up, but you can still make out a good bit of his face. The incident happened back in January and the NYPD is still searching for him. Despite what happened to Robinson, the NYPD says subway crime is getting better and less frequent. Their new crime stats showed transit crime dropped 9% for February 2023 compared to the same time last year.
The NYPD says the slowdown is partially due to them ramping up patrols and assigning more officers to the subway.When you break it down by type, there's been a decline in rapes, murders and shootings."And we're going to continue to do everything we can to continue to drive down those numbers," NYPD Police Commissioner Keechant Sewell said during an appearance on New York 1.
