At least a dozen people were injured Tuesday morning in a gruesome shooting in a Brooklyn subway station during rush hour, officials said.
The bloody incident broke out around 8:30 a.m. at the 36th Street station for the D, N, R lines in Sunset Park.
Clair, a straphanger who witnessed the event while riding the Manhattan-bound N train, told The Post there were so many rounds fired off she ?lost count.?
?There was like, lots of them. I don?t even know how many,? she said.
She said she saw the man ? who was described as a 5-foot-5 black man, around 170 pounds wearing an orange vest and gas mask ? drop ?some kind of cylinder that sparked at the top.?
?I thought he was an MTA worker at first because I was like, I didn?t like pay too much attention. You know? You?ve got the orange on,? she said.
Graphic photos showing blood-stained subway platform floors and injured people at the station have emerged on social media, but it was still unclear how many victims were injured in a possible explosion, a mass shooting or both, police officials said.
The NYPD?s bomb squad is on the scene investigating.
A spokesman for the FDNY said multiple undetonated devices were found.
The suspect is believed to be dressed in some sort of construction garb, similar to an MTA worker, sources said.
