Investigators say the incident happened as far-right activist Jake Long held an anti-Muslim protest outside the home of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, the city\u2019s first Muslim mayor.\n<\/p>\n
\u201cMany of the counter protesters met this display of bigotry peacefully with a vision of the city welcoming to all, but a few did not,\u201d Mamdani said.\n<\/p>\n
\u201cI want to commend the officers who were on site,\u201d Mamdani continued. \u201cThey faced a chaotic situation that very quickly could\u2019ve become far more dangerous.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
Mamdani said he was not home at the time, nor was his wife.\n <\/p>\n
As for the two Bucks County men facing federal charges, officials say they\u2019ll talk more in-depth about this case after the complaint has been unsealed.\n<\/p>\n
They expect that to happen later on Monday.\n<\/p>\n
Sources told ABC News the men told investigators they watch ISIS videos.\n<\/p>\n
Police are working with federal prosecutors and the FBI, which has assigned agents with the bureau\u2019s Joint Terrorism Task Force to the investigation.\n<\/p>\n
The NYPD said another suspicious device found Sunday in a vehicle on East End Avenue between 81st and 82nd streets did not test for explosives.\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Investigators say the incident happened as far-right activist Jake Long held an anti-Muslim protest outside the home of…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":158187,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[65327,9641,75,84,83,9,24,63],"class_list":["post-158186","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-manhattan","tag-6abc","tag-bucks-county","tag-manhattan","tag-manhattan-headlines","tag-manhattan-news","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/158186","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=158186"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/158186\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/158187"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=158186"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=158186"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=158186"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
