Last week, police said the four suspects live in New York City Housing Authority's Queensboro Houses in Long Island City.
Issouf's attorney, John Russo, previously told Fox News that his client did nothing wrong and that one or two people in the group had a "bumping incident" after filming a video for social media.

"My client was not involved in any fight. When the train reached the next station, she is seen exiting and saying she wants nothing to do with the violence inside the train," he said. "She surrendered herself as soon as the police contacted her."
