A 17-year-old girl was arrested on Wednesday and charged with two counts of criminal mischief in the first degree, and reckless endangerment in the first degree.
On Thursday, a 17-year-old male was arrested and also charged with two counts of criminal mischief in the first degree, and reckless endangerment in the first degree.
The MTA says two people broke into unoccupied train that was out of service and drove the car about 50 feet before bumping into another out of service train car just after midnight on Thursday at the Briarwood subway station.
"It was an extremely foolish and reckless act of two individuals accessing live track," said Interim Transit Authority President Demetrius Crichlow.
The crash caused minimal damage.
Prior to the arrest of the 17-year-old, the NYPD released video of the trespassers and believed they could have done this before.
