NEW YORK — A former chairman of the Metropolitan Transit Authority and New York City mayoral hopeful says he wouldn't have stopped the subway because two lost kittens were scrambling along the tracks.
A spokesman for Joe Lhota (LOH'-tuh) tells the New York Post (http://bit.ly/1965AnP ) Friday the candidate doesn't think shutting down subway service for lost cats is appropriate. But he said Lhota believes it wouldn't be the mayor's decision in any case.
