details on the injuries and the cameras that you bring up, bryan. thank you. bryan llenas. let us know if you get more breaking details. we re waiting for information hopefully leading to catching this individual. with bring in with that, ray kelly, the former new york city police commissioner. he s the longest serving commissioner ever and the old people to hold that post twice. commissioner, thanks very much for being with us. good to have you here today. thanks, martha. martha: we re getting details now. there s a question about an arizona plate. they got a bag he left behind. they know his build, how he was dressed. what is your assessment? all of this is good information. i think the description of the van or the u-haul probably came through the 577 tips hotline. that will be helpful in this
detectives do, look for cameras. if they re not working, that s not a good thing. i think that witnesses will come forward, informants will be queried by detectives. we re building information now. it s a few hours old. it s going to take a little time. this individual obviously had a plan to escape. smoke grenades. that in themselves could be a good tip. where do you get smoke grenades? very few places. who manufactures them, that sort of thing. so the case is building. it s going to take some time. i feel confident that this individual will be taken into custody. martha: we hope that s the case. we ll get into details in just a moment. i want to ask you big picture questions. let s play this sound bite from governor hochul. i want your reaction in terms of
case. this individual will be identified i think pretty quickly. it does underscore the concerns that the people have about the new york city subway system. crime is up 68% so far in the transit system and up 44% citiwide. those numbers are concerning. they re not going to do anything to raise people s confidence about riding the subway in the near term. martha: you say you re confident they will catch him. mayor adams said the same thing. there s nobody better than the nypd. do you think they have enough to go on? as brian reported, they re not sure the cameras were working in there. how much of an impediment is that in terms of figuring out which direction he might have gone in? certainly the cameras are very helpful. they change the role of law enforcement. that s one of the first things
jane london has so many security cameras focused on its transportation system and than city it s called the ring of steel and something similar could be making its way across the atlantic, the mayor of new york city michael bloomberg is in london preparing to spend about $200 million to build something in new york. greg palkot is in london. greg, what does the mayor see and what did he talk about with the mayor of london? reporter: jane, there is a mind-boggling half a million surveillance cameras in london. mayor bloomberg wants a few more of those in new york. he met today with the mayor of london, that s boris johnson, as well as police officials here. he looked specifically at the subway system, the underground system, and in that system, there is something like 12,000 cameras, compare that to just over 2000 working cameras on the new york city subway system. terrorists targeted the london system in 2005 and
13-year-old. it has to stop. i m committing the full resources of our state to fight this surge of crime. this insanity that is seizing our city. we want to get back to normal. the new york city mayor eric adams has covid has been speaking. he told the local radio station, martha, that one of the cameras was not working inidea of the train station and they re working with the mta to figure out if perhaps the whole station was without working cameras, which obviously make it much more difficult to locate where this suspect ran off to after unleashing this kind of mayhem. we know at least 28 people were injured. ten people were shot. five critically injured. luckily amazingly they are being described as nonlife threatening injuries and everybody is expected to survive as the man hunt continues. martha? martha: hopefully we get more
