The good news is, the dangerous Black supremacist subway terrorist has been arrested, and New Yorkers can breathe a sigh of relief…. but who actually called authorities to arrest the deranged racist ?
A New Yorker who was working inside a store claims he noticed on a security camera a man fitting the description of the Brooklyn subway shooter and called the police.
Zack Tahhan says he saw on the security monitors the suspect Frank James, who is accused of wounding 29 in a mass shooting in a Brooklyn subway station this week. James was arrested in the East Village neighborhood of New York on Wednesday.
However, the story is not adding up and the information is conflicting.
NYPD sources tell NBC New York that Frank James called a Crime Stoppers tip line on himself. James was apparently at a McDonald’s on the Lower East Side when he told police: “This is Frank. You guys are looking for me … my phone is about to die.”
James however was not found at the McDonald’s and A.P reported that Chief of Department Kenneth Corey said the Black supremacist was spotted on the corner nearby from the McDonald’s location.
The question remains did Zack Tahhan, who was working at a bodega call in the sighting, or did the police find him after responding to the phone call James Frank made? Did both James Frank and Zack Tahhan call authorities at around the same time?
Lastly, will Tahhan receive the $50,000 crime stoppers reward?
Thank you, Zack! You’re a hero with those fast reflexes. #brooklyn #brooklynshooter #nyc #eastvillage pic.twitter.com/Iy60dsJda0

“I saw that guy, he was walking in front of the screen. I saw him from the [security] camera,” Tahhan said. “So I go, ‘Oh, this guy. Let me call the police.’ And I called them and we caught him.”
“We try to make the people safe always because the people are kind, my life is nice,” he added.
