NEW YORK -- Police say someone set a shopping cart on fire early Friday morning at a subway station in the Bronx. 

It happened around 6:30 a.m. inside the Cypress Avenue and East 139th Street station. 

Investigators say the cart was set on fire on the southbound 6 train platform.

No one was hurt, and no arrests have been made. 

Earlier this year, police investigated two suspicious fires within a week on the 1 line. In 2020, 36-year-old train operator Garrett Goble was killed helping people escape a fire on the 2 line.
