someone went into my bag as i left the 7th ave station tonight with hands full of groceries. he got away with nothing but tried. bystanders didn't get involved claiming "it wasn't our business." been here for 15 yrs and pretty troubled by this. went to cops but nothing can be done. just be careful i guess.

    not good. Thanks for the warning, especially so I can tell my teenagers to be extra careful.

    Disturbing. Can you describe how this happened? Was it on the platform? Were you moving up/down the stairs? Was your bag open in some way? I always use a closed-top bag, just for this reason.
