Teen charged with rush-hour shooting at Broadway Red Line stop; three others sought

A 16-year-old was arraigned today on charges he opened fire on the Red Line platform at Broadway during rush hour last Friday, sending one man to the hospital with gunshot wounds to his thigh, the Suffolk County District Attorney's office reports.

The teen, too young to have his name released, was charged with assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, unlawful possession of a firearm, unlawful possession of a loaded firearm, unlawful possession of ammunition and using a firearm in the commission of a felony for the shooting, around 5:30 p.m., the DA's office reports.

According to the DA's office:

Surveillance video shows a group of four males walking down the stairs to the platform and boarding a northbound train. Shortly after, the victim and his friend are seen boarding the train through the same door. The four males are then seen exiting the train, as a southbound train enters the station and the platform fills up with passengers disembarking. The victim and his friend are seen exiting the train and begin to walk back toward the stairs, behind the four males. One of the males, later identified as the 16-year-old juvenile, is seen reaching into his waistband and pointing a gun down the platform before he flees.

Police recovered a flattened, copper jacketed, hollow-point bullet on the northbound side of the train platform.

The other males have not yet been identified. The investigation is ongoing.
