'The City is Not Safe': Suspect in NYC Subway Shooting Had 19 Prior Arrests

The main suspect in a New York City subway shooting on Sunday has 19 prior arrests, including for assault, robbery, and criminal possession of a weapon, according to the New York Post.

Law enforcement sources told the Post Andrew Abdullah is wanted for questioning in connection with the killing of Daniel Enriquez.

Police Commissioner Keechant Sewell on Monday morning tweeted pictures of the suspect, who is still at large, asking New Yorkers for "Help identifying & locating" the shooter.

As part of a progressive criminal justice reform effort, New York abolished cash bail in 2019 for most misdemeanor and nonviolent charges.

"The worst part is, even if they catch this person, he's going to be out again," Enriquez's sister, Griselda Vile, told the Post on Sunday.

"I wish you guys would go back to Mayor Adams and tell him the city is not safe."

Abdullah has also been charged with menacing and grand larceny, the Post reported.
