'Improvised explosive device' ignited near Gracie Mansion, NYPD says |
A device thrown outside the official residence of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani during dueling protests on Saturday, March 7, was confirmed to be an improvised explosive, according to a preliminary analysis by police. |
Mamdani said he and his wife were not home when two men allegedly ignited the devices outside Gracie Mansion. |
The two men accused of igniting the explosive, Emir Balat, 18, and Ibrahim Kayumi, 19, of Pennsylvania, were indicted Monday on federal charges of attempting to support ISIS and use of a weapon of mass destruction, records show. The two men said they were inspired by the Islamic State, a federal complaint said. | Team USA's Roman Anthony celebrates his third inning home run against Mexico with teammates Bryce Harper and Aaron Judge.
