NEW YORK (FOX5NY.COM) - Gunfire erupted in the subway system Tuesday evening, leaving an off-duty MTA supervisor wounded, officials said.

Several teens got into a fight on a No. 3 train and one of them pulled out a gun and fired a shot, a source told Fox 5.

The MetroCard booth clerk at the Sutter Avenue station in Brooklyn notified police.

Officers who responded at about 6:30 p.m. found a 48-year-old MTA worker with a gunshot wound to his arm. Medics brought him to Kings County Hospital to be treated for an apparent graze wound, police said.
