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.
