Authorities said a low-tech device was detonated in the New York City subway in an incident that the mayor called "an attempted terrorist attack."

A man suspected of setting off the explosion Monday morning in Midtown Manhattan was identified by authorities as Akayed Ullah. The blast, which occurred in the area of the Port Authority Bus Terminal, at 42nd St. and 8th Ave., resulted in serious injuries to the suspect and minor injuries to at least three others, authorities said during a morning news conference.

Ullah sustained burns and lacerations to his hands and abdomen, authorities said. Police said he was taken to Bellevue Hospital for treatment and then taken into custody. Three other people also suffered minor injuries caused by being in the vicinity of the explosion, including ringing in the ears and headaches, police said.

"When we hear of an attack in the subways, it's incredibly unsettling," New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio told reporters. "And let's also be clear, this was an attempted terrorist attack. Thank God the perpetrator did not achieve his ultimate goals."

The blast took place in an underground passageway at the Port Authority subway station, at 42nd Street between 7th and 8th avenues, authorities said. The suspect was walking eastbound in the passageway at the time, during what would have been peak morning commute hours.


"The first news this morning was obviously very frightening and disturbing," Cuomo said. "When you hear about a bomb in the subway station, it is in many ways one of our worst nightmares. The reality turns out to be better than the initial expectation and fear."

The NYPD is investigating the explosion as a possible terrorism incident, according to law enforcement officials.

The suspect was carrying a homemade explosive device that appeared to be a pipe bomb of some kind, officials said. Investigators are trying to determine if the device may have detonated prematurely, or partially, when it exploded inside a subway station at 8th Avenue and 42nd street, officials said. The suspect, who was injured in the explosion but was expected to survive, was described as an immigrant from Bangladesh, officials said.

On MSNBC, former New York Police Department Commissioner Bill Bratton said the suspect is in his mid-20s, is possibly from Bangladesh and "was supposedly setting the device off in the name of ISIS," according to preliminary information from his police sources. ISIS is another name for the Islamic State, an extremist group that has urged its followers to wage attacks around the world.

"So, definitely a terrorist attack. Definitely intended," Bratton told the news network. "As to whether the device malfunctioned or didn't function correctly, that will have to be determined."

Bratton said the explosion took place in one of the passageways at the Port Authority subway station, although was not certain which one. Even the passageways would have been very crowded at that time in the morning, he added.

How is he any different from a man who slaughters that cow or eats that cow ?

Quit equating the two things. Not everyone adheres to ur beliefs. Animal slaughter for the purpose of eating is nothing like this heinous act. The sole purpose here was to hurt the poor animal.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

[Cookie Monster]

So if he was to hurt it and eat it, it would have been all right ?

His mistake was to not eat it. Right ?

Dude u wanna be a vegetarian then go ahead and knock urself out. Don't impose ur worldview on others.

Look at carnivores, they have evolved canine teeth to be able to dig in, tear, and chew meat.

Herbivores, because they are plant eaters, have strong and flat molars that are made for grinding leaves.

Humans have both of those types. We are omnivores. This means our ancestors(urs too) had a mixed diet of meat and veggies. Now you can choose to be a vegetarian bcuz to each his own but don't make ridiculous claims. Slaughter for the purpose of eating isn't the same as torturing animals like a psychopath.

By ur reasoning all carnivore and omnivore animals are psychopathic murderers

Slaughtering the animal for consumption and torturing is different things , Please tell me you are not one of those Vegies

You are confusing me with a missionary.

You also seemed confused about what constitutes cruelty, so I was merely attempting to set the record straight.

Your definition seems to be that , its ok to be cruel as long as you eat that animal.


BTW to be a psychopathic murderer, one has to be self aware for e.g. Human. One needs to have the ability to control his feelings. Animals are not self aware (though that too can be debated) and are creatures of instinct, not reason and reasonable restrictions.



I am not interested in discussing anything personal.

How is torture different from slaughter ? The ONLY difference is that you consume the meat in the one of one process.

THAT is the only differentiation.

Unless you think the process of slaughter is not torturous for the animals and they rather enjoy their impending death

Even the Plants feel the pain but it never stopped you from eating em, and dont forget Mr.Vegie that herbivores eat plant to live and you eat plants and vegies which is their source of food .

No need to hide ur true intentions. Own it proudly...what u r doing is blatantly obvious...u r trying to prove that the Hindu practice of being shakahari is superior. Others who slaughter animals and consume their meat are committing the act of torture.

The thread was entirely about something else and u brought in an unrelated topic...and now u r off to preaching ur "superior" ways. Everyone sees what u r doing so hiding ur intentions is of no use.

Now let's get back to the topic at hand. Do u know how evolution works? I hope u do...
Well in that case go and read again what I wrote. Humans have evolved to be omnivores, which means our diet consists of meat and veggies. Consumption of meat is done in order to provide ur body with the much needed protein...how is that the same as some sadist blowing up a cow's mouth off to torture the poor thing?

And as for u getting on the high horse looking down on others as torturers...early on in Hinduism meat consumption was common. Even in hindu scriptures there are mentions of meat consumption. The practice of vegetarianism came in later. So u may continue to be narcissistic and look down on those who consume meat...just know that you would also be looking down on ur ancestors.

We need to check on Bangladeshi Immigrants in our country and throw them where they have come from.

Not every human is evolved to be omnivores, the humans who are decedents of vegans (Monkeys) are still vegans.

He is not a vegie.

He is a muslim hating hindu bigot. There is a big difference.
