New York City to Install Weapon Detection Systems in Subway Stations

The city is using Evolv Technology's weapons detection system, the same technology in place at Citi Field, where the New York Mets play.

Mayor Eric Adams says New York City's new weapons detection technology will be deployed in the subway system in the coming days.

The city has been looking at technology it can use with the MTA's existing camera systems to detect weapons, including firearms, ABC7.

This pilot program, first announced back in March, is the first step in that process.
