I'm Susan Richard and here are today's top local stories.

Subway trains seem more congested as of late.

A new look finds it's probably due to congestion pricing.

Ninety million additional subway rides in the first year of the congestion pricing program.

Brian Effert, who's associate director of the permanent citizens advisory committee

to the MTA says the tolling program works.

The proof is in the numbers, congestion pricing is working as anticipated.

Traffic is down, but the business indicators in the congestion relief zone are up.

Effert says their findings push back against critics who say there will be less commuters

heading into South of 60th Street.

Here's some other examples, some stats of the success of congestion tolling.

Times Square Station of the biggest increase in ridership, nearly two and a half million

more strap hangers in that station alone.

Remember back in January when we told you about the city council staffer who was arrested

by ICE?

Well, a judge is now ordered Rafael Rubio out of the country.

He is a council data analyst who was arrested at a routine immigration hearing in

Beth Page on January 12th.

City council speaker Julie Menon says she will continue to fight on his behalf.

So let me be clear, Rafael should be released immediately.

This is outrageous decision by the judge.

There's no justification for continuing to the team.

Menon previously said Rubio was in the country legally and had been cleared on all background

checks to work for the city.

DHS says he had a previous arrest for an assault and it overstayed his visa issued

back in 2017.

The judge who ordered him sent back to Venezuela disputed the argument that Rubio was allowed

to stay because he had temporary protected status when he was initially allowed in.

The Trump administration got rid of that for Venezuelans last year.

Ten months after his arrest at a routine immigration hearing, a Bronx high school student

has been released from an out-of-state ICE facility.

As Dylan Contreras made his way home from Central Pennsylvania, his legal team finally

exhaled Annie Whitney with the New York legal assistance group among them.

We're so happy that he's finally out and we hope that no one further has to spend any

time and attention, but definitely not months and months on end losing a whole school year.

Elected officials, advocates and his mother publicly pressed for his release.

A really incredible advocate for her son.

I'm speaking out and being so brave in a really hostile environment.

Mayor Mamdani praised Contreras' release calling his detention and injustice.

We are getting a new look at the moment city cops took down the teenage suspects in the

attempted homemade bomb attack during a protest outside Gracie Mansion.

Yeah, that is someone shouting bomb bomb with one of the officers pouncing on 18-year-old

Amir Balot before more cops helped to restrain him.

Both Balot and 19-year-old Ibrahim Kiyumi are being held without bail on federal charges

that include using a weapon of mass destruction and attempting to provide material support

to a foreign terrorist organization that being ISIS.

You can see that video, by the way, on any of our 1010 wins social media pages.

Police Commissioner Jessica Tish slamming the Trump administration for cutting federal

counterterrorism funds for New York City.

People are alive today because of these grants.

We must never lose sight of that.

And I want to be clear, because of the nature of how these multi-year grants are distributed.

This funding gap is not a problem now today.

But if it goes unaddressed, it will be a profound problem two years from now.

At a city council budget hearing she said the NYPD's federal homeland security grant had

been slashed by 40% or $36 million.

She also said they're being denied money from the port security grant, which is usually

about $6 million, so far no comment from DHS.

Carbon monoxide lands more than half a dozen folks in the Bronx in the hospital.

When first responders, carbon monoxide detectors went off as they went into the building on

Grant Avenue, that's when they knew something was wrong.

Seven people are now in the hospital, FDNY battalion chief Kevin Thomas.

High carbon monoxide levels that were affecting the people in the building.

They vented the building, shut off the utilities, they were causing the problem and addressed

all those issues.

It looks like something went wrong with an oil burner in the building.

Jay Will lives next door.

That's pretty crazy, honestly, you know, hopefully, you know, everybody in the hospital

is, you know, definitely, you know, taking care of it and hopefully, you know, everybody's

okay.

The home remains evacuated and the fire marshal is investigating.

Upper West Ciders come together to help a 79 year old door man who was attacked on the

job.

George Leica has worked for the residents at the West 88th Street building for 20 years.

Now they're giving back after he was viciously attacked for refusing to let someone into

the building.

We were very surprised and I'm happy that the building in the community is rallying

around him for a go fund me because he has a long road of recovery, it seems.

West in Copland says nearly $12,000 has been collected for George who Gwennevere has known

her whole life.

He's here late night all night and he's spent this time cleaning and polishing the doors

and the elevators and he's just the best.

29 year old Moisha Dardashty has been charged with assault and criminal possession of a

weapon.

A warning about a phony PSENG scam in Middlesex County prosecutors there say scammers have

been using phone texts, emails and phone calls claiming the terms of your service has changed

and that your payments overdue.

They then either send you a phone number or a link to a website that is phony and steals

your passwords and personal info.

They remind folks to use only the official phone number which is 1-800-436-PSEG and never

share personal info like your birthday, social security number or login password.

Okay, millennials, how about this to make you feel old?

It may feel like yesterday that you were playing the Nintendo Wii, the Xbox 360 and the

PlayStation 3.

But GameStop says it wasn't yesterday, they're now considered retro.

I mean, I had it as a kid about what, almost 20 years ago.

J.C.

Smart agrees.

Every maddened for that system from the beginning to now.

Even though they don't sell it, I download it.

When it becomes classic classic, I can sell it.

Jasmine romp and Rochaia didn't think they were retro just yet.

Give it a few more years.

No, I don't think it was vintage yet, but I think like Nintendo 64, the Wii.

Mary Lynn Buckley, 1010 wins on 92, 3 of them at Union Square.
