'See Something, Say Something' Guy Caught Sleeping on the Train

NEW YORK, NY — The man from one of the most prominent New York City "See Something, Say Something" MTA subway ads was photographed in a candid on his way home from work one evening on the Long Island Railroad. The man, who appears to be the one in the ad whose name is Gregg Turkin, can be seen sleeping on the train.

The photo was originally posted Aug. 12 to the @PeopleofPennStation Instagram. Patch has reached out to the account, but has yet to receive a response.

The photo was posted to the NYC Reddit Monday. "This made my year," one commenter wrote. "He's not going to keep us safe if he sleeps like that!" another commenter added.

The ad featuring Turkin is part of an MTA ad campaign released back in March called "New Yorkers Keep New York Safe." It features everyday New Yorkers who reported something fishy to the MTA or to a police officer, and they're proud they could've saved a life, regardless of whether it was a false alarm.

Are we the only ones who think it would be cool to start a "Pokémon Go"-style hunt, except for all the New Yorkers who "saw something and said something" in those ads? There are 56 people total in the ads, according to the Daily News. Ready, set, go!
