It’s practically impossible not to bump others on the 7, the train is always so full. I’ve had incidents where I’ve brushed against people who stand with their back to the door when they open at a stop and give me a push back… Yep, lots of a’holes

Twenty people indicted in Queens-based $4.6M vehicle theft ring after three-year probe: DA

Twenty individuals were indicted and variously charged in a wide-ranging scheme to steal cars in Queens, throughout New York City and its suburbs, following a three-year investigation by the Queens District Attorney’s Office, the NYPD, and the New York State Police dubbed “Operation Hellcat,” into the criminal enterprise based in Queens.
