NYPD still Investigating reasons behind subway station mass shooting

The New York Police Department (NYPD) is still investigating the causes of the now "confirmed" mass shooting at the Brooklyn subway station this morning but does not have the number of victims at present, a NYPD spokesperson told Sputnik on Tuesday.

"It’s confirmed shooting. We are still investigating," the spokesperson said. "We are still trying to ascertain more information from the troopers on the scene. We don’t have a number of the victims at this time."

The incident came just a day after US President Joe Biden announced new gun control measures, increasing restrictions on so-called "ghost guns", the difficult-to-trace weapons that can be assembled at home.

Over the past five-year period, the US Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) could only trace 0.98% of suspected "ghost guns" handed in by law enforcement to an individual purchaser, the department added.

According to the organization Gun Violence Archive, more than 11,700 people have died by firearms since the beginning of the year in the United States, including suicides. 

Over the whole of 2020, the number rose to 45,000 dead, said the archive, a figure which has prompted the White House to speak of an "epidemic".
