Woman, 33, stabbed after fight breaks out on train in the Bronx
An argument between two straphangers turned violent Wednesday afternoon, with one woman stabbed on a Bronx-bound train, authorities said.
Cops responded to the assault around 3:42 p.m. p.m. on a northbound D train pulling into the 170th Street station in Highbridge after a 33-year-old woman was stabbed in the left leg by a 28-year-old female passenger, cops said.
'It was two women fighting on the train,' an MTA worker told the Daily News following the incident. 'One stabbed the other in the fight.'
EMS transported the 33-year-old woman to St Barnabas Hospital, where she was in stable condition, police said.
'When they brought her out in the chair, her body was covered in blood,' the MTA worker said. 'She was conscious and alert but she was covered in her own blood.'
Both combatants were taken into custody after the brawl. It wasn't clear what triggered the fight.
Bronx-bound B and D trains were temporarily run on the express track from 167th Street to Tremont Ave. after the incident. Service delays were cleared up by Wednesday evening, according to the MTA.

What caused Air India Flight AI171 to crash? The key information we know so far
The Indian government is reportedly looking at a number of factors that may explain why Air India flight AI 171 crashed shortly after take-off from Ahmedabad Airport on Thursday, killing all but one of its 242 passengers. The London Gatwick-bound plane - which was carrying 53 British passengers, 169 Indian nationals, seven Portuguese and one Canadian - crashed into a medical college and erupted in a huge fireball on Thursday. The sole survivor was Briton Vishwash Kumar Ramesh, 40. At least 24 more people on the ground died. One of two black boxes has reportedly been found in a bid to help piece together vital clues that could shed light on the cause of the accident. On Friday, it was reported that Air India and the Indian government were looking at several aspects of the crash, including issues with the jet's engine thrust, its flaps, and why its landing gear remained open. The government is also looking at whether Air India was at fault, including looking at maintenance issues, a source told Reuters. Experts have also raised questions about the plane's landing gear, which was down when it should have been up, as well as the wing flaps. Some have raised the possibility of a power failure or bird strike. Here, Yahoo News UK looks at what investigators are likely to be considering. The Reuters news agency has reported two police sources as saying one of two black boxes from the plane has been found. They did not say whether it was the flight data recorder or the cockpit voice recorder that had been recovered. The black boxes, which are coloured orange to make them easier to find in the event of a crash, will be critical in establishing what happened. There are normally two recorders: a Cockpit Voice Recorder (CVR) for pilot voices or cockpit sounds, and a separate Flight Data Recorder (FDR). They are mandatory on civil flights, but their aim is not to determine any wrongdoing or fault - they are designed to preserve clues from cockpit sounds and data to help prevent future accidents. According to Reuters, investigators say the FDR helps them analyse what happened, and the CVR can start to explain why, though no two investigations are the same. According to Airbus: "Flight recorders store data (aircraft parameters) and sound (pilot, copilot, radio communications and the cockpit ambient noise). The recording device is crash-protected up to a certain level. It is resistant to fire, explosion, impact and water immersion." Video of the plane before the crash has shown its landing gear was down. Usually, this folds back into the aircraft immediately after it becomes airborne. Former British Airways pilot Alastair Rosenschein told Sky News: "It's clearly got its [landing] gear down and that is not correct... it should have been up." Watch: Moment Air India flight crashes after take-off He added: "I cannot understand why the [landing] gear would have been down... [and] left down. That would suggest, perhaps, a hydraulic problem because it's hydraulics that raise the gear." However, he made clear this was speculation. US aerospace safety consultant Anthony Brickhouse also said of the landing gear being down: "If you didn't know what was happening, you would think that plane was on approach to a runway." Steve Scheibner, an American Airlines pilot, also suggested there were abnormalities with the plane's wing flaps and linked this to the landing gear being down. Pilot Sumeet Sabharwal and his co-pilot Clive Kundar cried 'mayday' as the plane lost altitude, saying the engine was 'losing power'. According to reports, Sabharwal, who had more than 8,000 hours of flying experience, said he had 'no thrust' and was 'unable to lift'. And the Wall Street Journal reported on Friday, citing unnamed sources, that an investigation into the crash was focusing on "whether the aircraft had a loss or reduction in engine thrust". Dr Jason Knight, a senior lecturer in fluid mechanics at the University of Portsmouth, told The Telegraph: 'It appears from the video there is a cloud of dust just after take-off. 'I'm not sure, but it appears as though the cloud of dust could be from the engines as they both fail.' A twin-engine failure is extremely rare. The BBC reported experts familiar with Ahmedabad Airport as saying it is "notorious for birds", which can cause engine failures. Dr Knight also said "the most likely [reason] is a bird strike in both engines". But Scheibner said he didn't think a bird strike is a "likely theory". "We don't see any birds in the picture. It would have to be a lot of birds to foul out both engines and we don't see any indications coming out of the back of the engine that that happened: you'd see flames, you'd see sparks."

'A lot of brotherhood here': Black Rain Ordnance holds First Responder Appreciation Day
NEOSHO, Mo. — Goodman police Chief Mike Akins said he's been out to Black Rain Ordnance before, for training, but he came for a different reason Thursday — First Responder Appreciation Day. He was one of hundreds of first responders who turned out for the event. Black Rain officials said it was a way to reach out to those serving communities across the nation with support and thanks. It was held at the company's Neosho site, where the precision firearms manufacturer has been operating since 2009. The event was open to the entire first responder community, including law enforcement, EMS, 911 dispatch, fire departments and active military. 'A life of service is a life of purpose,' said Kyle Hicks, marketing manager at Black Rain Ordnance. 'When you have things you can believe in, you can stand for something. We choose to stand behind the people that protect and serve our community, the thankless jobs, the ones that are often overlooked. In today's world, it's important to remember what makes us great, and it's people who serve our community that make us great.' The day included a home-cooked lunch and several vendors demonstrating products such as pistols, long-range rifles, less-lethal rounds and medical response equipment. As a national dealer for law enforcement, Black Rain drew visitors from as far away as Louisiana. 'It's a day for us to give back,' Hicks said. 'Most of our staff is either former law enforcement or military, and that's a deep part of who we are. Being able to give back and continue to serve that community really speaks to the core of our beliefs.' Akins said the event was good opportunity for him to talk with peers, some of whom have been doing this longer or may have similar cases they are working. 'I just want to hopefully make some good contacts, talk with some vendors and go from there,' Akins said. 'Black Rain has supported law enforcement pretty much from the go. This is just their way of giving back to us, and it's just great.' Alex Scrivner, sales director for law enforcement for Templar Tactical and Outdoor out of St. Louis, was on hand Thursday presenting nonlethal options that launch things such as pava, a small capsule containing a strong irritant powder. The rounds are meant for compliance and de-escalation, he said. In addition to working with Templar Tactical, Scrivner has worked in law enforcement for many years and currently is an officer in Breckenridge Hills. He said reaching out to officers is a passion of his and that he wanted to attend the event offering officers another tool to help them with de-escalation and perhaps save a life. 'It's good to have a day like today where guys can come out and have fun and de-stress,' Scrivner said. 'This is very important because it helps guys get away from all of the day-to-day and relax. They can share their experiences in law enforcement and solutions to problems. There's a lot of networking, a lot of brotherhood here.'
