New York is set to deploy the National Guard to subways after a string of violence on the transportation system. New York Gov. Kathy Hochul announced the plans Wednesday to deploy the national guardsmen to help police search passengers' bags for weapons, following a series of high-profile crimes on city trains.
Hochul, a Democrat, said she will send 750 members of the National Guard, as well as 250 state troopers, to help the New York Police Department check bags at subway entrances.
