Story highlights
- Police: No actual shots were fired
- Amtrak police used a stun gun at the station, mass panic erupts
(CNN)Terrified crowds raced out of New York's Penn Station following false reports of gunfire, leading to a stampede that injured at least 16 people, authorities said.
The false reports Friday night sent people pushing past one another to escape the underground station. Bags, shoes and other personal items were strewn all over, the result of a panicked mass exit.
No shots were fired, and the sound was of police using a stun gun on someone, NYPD Chief William Morris said.
"About 6:30 tonight, we received numerous calls for shots fired in and around Penn Station," Morris said.
"As officers responded, we learned that the Amtrak police had deployed a Taser, the likely source of the sound and the ensuing 911 calls."
Crowded station
The station was already crowded due to a NJ Transit train that had stalled in a tunnel earlier, prompting massive delays during the evening rush hour.
Fire department crews were wrapping up operations related to the stalled train when chaos erupted over the false reports. They joined law enforcement to take care of patients injured in the stampede, said deputy chief Tom Currao of the FDNY.
"We had approximately 16 patients, all non-life threatening," he said.
In a tweet Friday night, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio reiterated that "no shots were fired at Penn Station" that evening.
Amtrak, which serves Penn Station, said the person tased is in police custody. The station remains open.
At Macy's Herald Square -- down the block from Penn Station -- multiple people were tweeting about reports of an active shooter there around the same time Friday.
There were no shots fired there either. It was a reaction to the stun gun incident, NYPD's Tiffany Phillips said.
CNN's Kwegyirba Croffie and Kristina Sgueglia contributed to this report

Trump White House will not make logs of visitors available to public by Paul Owen and agencies
Trump administration will break with practice of Barack Obama of making public who visits White House, citing privacy and national security concerns
The White House won’t make public the logs of visitors to the White House complex, breaking with the practice of Donald Trump’s predecessor.
Senior White House officials cited privacy and national security concerns for the decision, which they say is in line with what previous administrations have done – except for Barack Obama’s. They say continuing to release the records could interfere with policy development, among other things.

WASHINGTON – A group of House Democrats is asking the FBI to suspend White House senior adviser Jared Kushner’s security clearance.
In a letter to FBI Director James Comey, the lawmakers cited Jared Kushner’s failure to disclose some of his contacts with Russian government officials when he filled out an application for a security clearance.
A lawyer for Kushner, who is also Trump’s son-in-law, says the omissions were an “administrative error.”
The Democrats noted that knowingly falsifying or concealing information on a clearance application is a felony. They’re asking the FBI to review whether Kushner complied with the law and they’re also asking him to make public all meetings he had with foreign officials during the campaign and transition.
