“I know a lot of people in Stobswell and they know me. We look after each other.”

The top cop, appearing on FOX 5’s Good Day New York, was peppered with questions about recent violence on the rails in light of the unprovoked attack on Gerard Sykes, an off-duty MTA conductor, on a J train at Crescent Street on Wednesday night.
Two days earlier, Cuomo had pointed the finger at his political foe and Shea’s boss, Big Apple Mayor Bill de Blasio, for turning the subways into a rolling homeless shelter, claiming the situation was worse than even during the dangerous 1970s.
