The Brooklyn District Attorney’s office said it will not prosecute the subway rider who disarmed and shot a 36-year-old man after he was stabbed last week.
The New York City Mayor’s Office said via X after the incident: “A suspect has been taken into custody and a firearm has been recovered.”
In the chilling viral video, a heated exchange is captured between two men, and later, a woman becomes involved. The video showed Dajuan Robinson confronting another man, Younece Obuad, repeatedly saying, “I love my Blacks, that’s it. F–k you. F–k you. F–k your kind. Fuck your race. I love my Blacks.”
“I will beat you up,” Robinson says before the two men then begin fighting while passengers scramble away.
A woman then stabs the Robinson in his back. “You stabbed me?” the man says a few times. “I am locking you up when you get off. … I am bleeding.”
The woman replied, saying, “I didn’t do nothing.” He then retrieved a gun from his jacket and repeated the question, “You stabbed me, didn’t you?”
Before multiple shots were fired, Obuad, 32, managed to wrestle the gun away. Robinson was rushed to a hospital and is currently in critical but stable condition.
The video captured by a passenger also showed the chaos that ensued among the remaining individuals on the train as they rushed to try to find safety. Several pleaded to exit before the doors opened, and a frantic rush ensued as they fled for their lives.
