Jack Schinasi, of Yonkers, New York, left, has his bag inspected by members of the New York Police Department upon entering the Woodlawn subway station in the Bronx borough of New York, Friday July 22, 2005. Random inspections were made at the station where riders were told that they would need to exit the station if they did not want to have their packages inspected. Schinasi said of the inspection "I guess it's a little bit of a hassle. But it didn't make me miss my train".
