“MTA has photos of Sunset Park shooting suspect Frank James”

MTA officials said Wednesday that security cameras in the city’s subway system captured images of the man believed to be responsible for Tuesday’s carnage on the N train, Frank James, from three angles as the manhunt continues.

MTA boss Janno Lieber revealed the information in a NY1 interview hours after his agency transit authority came under intense scrutiny in the immediate aftermath of the shooting when it was discovered at least one of the cameras in the 36th Street station had gone offline.

“There was a server problem where the camera was working but somehow the internet connection had failed,” Lieber told the station.
