Late Sunday into the early hours of Monday morning, half the New York City subway system went dark and stranded hundreds, if not thousands of passengers.
New York Governor Kathy Hochul told reporters outside the Metropolitan Transportation Authority Headquarters in Lower Manhattan about the incident. She called it an “unprecedented system breakdown” that led to half of the nation’s largest subway system losing power around 2100 ET Sunday and restored around 0130 ET Monday.
