Gunman who smoke bombed subway pleads guilty to terrorism

Frank James, 63, was charged with 10 counts of terrorism, one for each person shot, and one firearms count, Qazet.az reports.

Thirteen passengers also suffered smoke-related injuries during the attack in Brooklyn's Sunset Park neighbourhood on April 12, 2022. 

James was arrested after a 30-hour manhunt. 

He initially pleaded not guilty, but changed his plea on Tuesday at a District Court in Brooklyn.
