Officials not seeking other suspects in NY and NJ bombings: Mayor

September 20, 2016 00:18

Mayor Bill de Blasio says police are not seeking additional suspects at this time, but several officials have warned New Yorkers and New Jersey residents to remain vigilant and call police if they see anything suspicious.

A 28-year-old naturalised American citizen of Afghan descent was arrested on Monday by United States authorities following a shootout hours after the New York mayor conceded that the blast that injured 29 people here could be an act of 'terrorism' with foreign links.

Ahmad Khan Rahami, the man suspected in bombings in New York and New Jersey, is now in custody after a shootout with police, CNN reported.
