NYC starts scanning subway riders for weapons. Here's what to know.
Updated on: July 26, 2024 / 11:18 PM EDT / CBS New York


NEW YORK -- New York City started scanning subway riders for weapons at select stations Friday, as part of a controversial 30-day pilot program.
The first system was installed in the Fulton Street subway station Friday afternoon, just in time for the evening commute. The plan is to eventually install the systems at major subway stations all across the city.

"We're officially launching an initial pilot of a groundbreaking new weapons detection technology. We will be deploying electromagnetic detection systems at select subway stations over the next month," Mayor Eric Adams said.
While officials say the main goal is to keep guns out of the subway, the scanners can also detect other weapons, such as razors.
"This is to add on to and leverage technology to prevent shooters in our subways, and this is about preventing mass casualty incidents," Adams said.
For safety reasons, transit police have not released a list of where the scanners will be installed, but riders should be prepared to make them part of their routine. CBS New York political reporter Marcia Kramer has been told the systems will be moved from station to station at different times of the day, so commuters won't know when or where they will be checked for weapons. https://www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news/nyc-starts-installing-subway-weapon-detectors/
