By Chandrayee Roy Choudhury, Canada:

A gunman in a gas mask and a construction vest set off a smoke canister on a rush-hour subway train in Brooklyn and shot at least 10 people on Tuesday, authorities said. Police were scouring the city for the shooter and a rental truck.

A scene of horror unfolded as frightened commuters ran from the train as others limped out of it. At least one collapsed on the platform

Five people were in critical condition but expected to survive. At least 29 in all were treated in hospital for gunshot wounds, smoke inhalation and other conditions.
