As long as my company will pay for taxis, I think I'll stay off the NY City subways for awhile until the figure out why people keep getting shot in the face for no reason. This is the fourth similar attack in the last few weeks.

QUEENS SUBWAY SHOOT

A man standing on a Queens subway platform was shot in the face last night as he waited to ride to work, cops said — the fourth seemingly random incident involving gunplay in the city transit system in a month.

The 23-year-old man — whose name was withheld — was shot on the right side of the face by another man as they stood on the Manhattan-bound elevated Queensboro Plaza station platform at 9:45 p.m., cops said.

The bullet ripped through the man's face and came out the back of his head, police sources said. He was rushed to New York Hospital in critical condition.
