New York City Gov. Kathy Hochul announced Thursday that she is deploying more police officers to the New York City subway system.

New York City’s subway system is about to see more police on its platforms and train cars as Governor Kathy Hochul ramps up security following recent violent attacks that have shaken riders.

In a statement, NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said Hochul’s plan will allow for two officers to ride every overnight train. But she said more needs to be done to deal with the ongoing issue of repeat offenders who commit a disproportionate number of crimes in the subways, which she called the “root of the issue.”
