NYPD Deputy Commissioner of Operations Kaz Daughtry announced on X, formerly known as Twitter that the incident was not an active shooter and was an "isolated incident."

"There is no ongoing threat," Daughtry wrote on X. In a separate update, the NYPD's official account on X advised individuals to use alternate routes and expect traffic in the area.

"Due to an active police investigation, please avoid the area of Jerome Ave between Inwood Ave and Townsend Ave in Bronx, NY, which is in the confines of the@NYPD44Pct," their update read.

During a press conference on Friday afternoon, NYPD Chief of Transit Michael Kemper said that authorities believe that the shooting occurred as a result of "two groups fighting on a train."

"What we know right now is that there were two groups of teenagers riding a northbound train. As the train pulled up to the Mount Eden station, the doors opened up and at least one of the individuals in that group, or in the two groups, took out a gun and fired shots," said Kemper.

NYPD First Deputy Commissioner Tania Kinsella called the incident "another senseless act of violence occurred in our transit system."

"We have innocent victims, and we want New Yorkers to know that we will get you whoever was responsible for this," she said.
