Man with rifle busted in Times Square subway station

A man with what appears to be an assault rifle was busted in the Times Square subway station Friday afternoon, police sources said.

The man was busted near a cell phone charging station by the turnstiles leading to the A, C and E lines around 12:30 p.m.

The rifle was unloaded but ammunition for the gun, which resembles an AK-47, was in his bag, sources said.

The man is being questioned by detectives from the NYPD Intelligence Bureau.
