Update:The New York City Police Department is investigating what it deems a credible tip that 19 operatives have been deployed to New York to place bombs in the subway, and security in the subways will be increased.

From ABC News According to sources in intelligence, emergency services and police headquarters, when three Iraqi insurgents were arrested several days ago during a raid by a joint FBI-CIA team, one of those caught disclosed the threat. Because it slipped out during the arrest, the plot was deemed credible. After several days of work, sources said, the NYPD is increasingly concerned because it has been unable to discredit the initial source and additional information from the source. The 19 operatives were to place improvised explosive devices in the subways using briefcases, according to two sources.
