The madman who opened fire on a Brooklyn subway car, shooting 10 and leaving another 19 wounded, has been taken into custody, law enforcement sources told The Post.

Frank James, 62, is the prime suspect in Tuesday’s attack and has been on the lam for more than 24 hours after he allegedly disguised himself as a construction worker and fired 33 rounds onboard a Manhattan-bound N train in Sunset Park during the early-morning rush.

Early Wednesday, police received a Crime Stoppers tip from someone who claimed they spotted James at a McDonald’s on East 6th Street and First Avenue in the East Village, law-enforcement sources said. When cops arrived, he was no longer there but they soon caught up to him a few blocks away at St. Mark’s Place and First Avenue, the sources said.

James allegedly didn’t resist when police arrested him and he’s currently in custody at the 9th Precinct.

Twenty-nine victims were wounded in the hellish attack, including ten who were hit by gun fire and 19 others who suffered from a range of injuries, including a pregnant woman who was trampled.

The weapon used in the attack, a 9mm semiautomatic Glock, jammed in the midst of the bloodshed, which law enforcement sources say prevented further carnage.

If he’s only 5’5”, they sent the tiniest cop to arrest him.

Looks like the whole police force is only 5 foot tall, I guess it's diversity hiring for midgets or something.

Can’t be true... haven’t the media assured us cops shoot all black suspects on sight?

Exactly. The officials giving themselves kudos . . . but James was roaming the streets with an extensive rap sheet. Easy sentence after easy sentence given to him. Yet no reporters’ questions about sickening judicial leniency.

I just read a story claiming he called the cops himself while someone else was also reporting his location.

Guy is off his rocker. And thats all libs need to get him a cushy cell.

It looks like James was so blundering he couldn’t get through the turnstile properly.

So why don’t they want to go to their own continent,
Africa, which is much larger than America?
