The 1, 2, and 3 trains are being rerouted or suspended because of a police investigation at the 34th Street-Penn Station stop. We hear there was an incident (update: triple murder stabbing suspect Maksim Gelman was caught on the 2 train)—either near 34th Street and 7th Avenue or 40th Street and 7th Avenue—which now means the downtown 1 train is terminating at 96th Street, the 2 trains are running on the 5 line between the 149th Street-Grand Concourse Station and the Atlantic Avenue-Pacific Street Station, and the 3 train is suspended between the Chambers Street Station and the 96th Street Station.
Gelman apparently stabbed at least one other passenger before being apprehended.
