Five people will evenly share the $50,000 Crime Stoppers reward for offering tips that led to the arrest of a suspect in this week’s mass shooting inside a subway, the NYPD said Friday.
The names of the individuals, who will receive $10,000 each, were not released by the NYPD.
The announcement comes two days after Frank R. James, the suspect in the subway shooting that left at least 23 people injured, was placed under arrest in Manhattan's East Village. While James called Crime Stoppers on himself, he was also spotted by a group of individuals, including Zack Tahhan, a 21-year-old security camera installer. It’s unclear whether Tahhan is among the recipients of the Crime Stoppers reward.
