The MTA Doesn't Care How A Shark Ended Up On A NYC Subway Train

New York's Metropolitan Transportation Authority will not investigate the mysterious appearance of a dead shark on a Queens-bound N subway train, a spokesperson said today.

Yes, folks this morning we removed a shark from an N train at Ditmars Blvd.....and no, we're not investigating how it got there. :) #MTA

Another MTA spokesperson indicated that the shark was real, despite some doubts voiced on Twitter:

@SecondAveSagas @danarubinstein @MichaelMurphyNY Update: The shark was real. Shark Maintainers are not.
