"The chaos started when the power went out at 5:30 p.m. on Wednesday, December 11 between the Jay Street-MetroTech and Hoyt-Schermerhorn stops on the A, C, F, and G lines in Downtown Brooklyn.

"New Yorkers deserve a world-class subway system, and thousands of commuters experienced unacceptable service issues last night due to an electrical issue. No one deserves to be trapped underground for two hours, or face such significant delays when trying to commute home from work."
