A 16-year-old girl with psychiatric problems walked through a subway tunnel from Manhattan to Queens on Monday afternoon, police said.
The teen was grabbed by police at the 21st St-Queensbridge subway station and taken to Elmhurst Hospital Center for a mental health evaluation. She is not likely to be charged, police said.
When police arrived, she was gone, already on her way to Queens.
Authorities shut the power off briefly then turned it back on so officers could ride a train at a slow speed, looking for the teen.
But cops on the lookout for her in Queens saw her enter the station and took her into custody.
Maybe she just wanted to save the fare?!
Not worth it!
I wonder if the attention she drew will encourage her to try it again.
Highly motivated to get those flatfoots out of her hair one would presume.
She should have her head examined - Queens is FAR MORE DANGEROUS than Manhattan, where they have to keep a lot of cops around due to the big money living there.
