New York City's mayor and the head of the NYPD announced a gun scanner pilot for the subway system, the latest in a series of initiatives designed to reassure the public after recent high-profile crimes.

Mayor Eric Adams and NYPD Commissioner Edward Caban shared details of their plan to test what are called Evolv gun detectors in some locations underground. The scanners are portable and easy to relocate. They're also designed for 1-minute installation. Many hospitals in the area already use them.
