NYC Mayor Says Suspects Threw Improvised Explosive Devices at Protest

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani said suspects threw improvised expl*sive devices during a tense protest outside his official residence at Gracie Mansion. Police said one of the devices was lit and thrown toward the protest area during clashes between demonstrators and counter protesters before it extinguished itself near a police barrier, preventing an expl*sion. Authorities said the device contained nuts, bolts, screws, and a fuse and could have caused serious injury or d*ath if it had detonated. Two suspects were arrested at the scene and federal investigators have joined the probe as officials continue examining the devices and the events that led to the violent confrontation.
