Gov. Kathy Hochul pledged Friday to stop the runaway train of subway violence by making it easier to involuntarily commit and treat dangerous mentally ill New Yorkers — but critics quickly blasted her largely detail-free plan as too little,

The move comes after several high-profile violent incidents in the New York City subway system, including the death of a woman who was set on fire.

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul wants to expand the state’s involuntary commitment laws to allow hospitals to compel more mentally ill people into treatment, following a series of violent crimes in the New York City subway system.

Gov. Kathy Hochul says the recent surge in violence in the subway "cannot continue." She says she will include new legislation in the executive budget to change New York's involuntary commitment standards.
