A gunman set off a smoke canister and opened fire inside a New York City subway train and station, injuring at least 28 people during the morning commute on Tuesday.

A manhunt is underway for the suspect, who shot at least 10 people at the 36th Street station in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, about a half-mile from the Nets' practice facility in the borough. 

"It's obviously a very tragic morning," Nets coach Steve Nash said, via ESPN. "We're devastated for the community and for those directly involved. I don't know a lot of the details, so I don't want to get too far into it, but we're just all concerned for everyone involved. And at the same time try to prepare and be focused on our task at hand."

The attack started around 8:24 a.m., as a Manhattan-bound N train approached the 36th St. station in Sunset Park.
