The suspect in Tuesday’s New York City subway attack was taken into custody Wednesday.
Frank James was taken into custody “after police received a Crime Stoppers tip directing them to the East Village neighborhood of Manhattan,” NBC News reported.
James’ arrest came “more than 24 hours into the expansive search” for his whereabouts, the New York Times pointed out.
The NYPD put forward Frank James as a “person of interest” in the Tuesday morning NYC subway attack, Breitbart News noted Tuesday.
