The NYPD is searching for Alberto Frias, 27, accused of killing Adrian Dawodu, 41, of Manhattan. The Tuesday afternoon subway platform shooting was captured on video taken by a passenger aboard a passing train.
Authorities say shots rang out just before 3 p.m., striking Dawodu throughout his body. EMS took him to NYC Health and Hospitals/Lincoln, where he was pronounced dead.
His death marked the first homicide in transit this year, but it was not the first shooting at the 170th Street station;
shots rang out a little over a month earlier on the station’s platform, but nobody was struck, according to authorities.
Police ask anyone with information about Frias to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477).
