These two will be federally charged......

Two young men - Emir Balat, age 18 and Ibrahim Kayumi, age 19  - threw two explosive devices at a protest on Sunday.  Fortunately, neither detonated although they were both considered highly functional IEDs.  Balat’s parents are both from Turkey & were naturalized into US citizens in 2017, while Ibrahim Kayumi’s parents are both from Afghanistan. Mom naturalized in 2009, dad naturalized in 2004.

Video footage shows at least one of them yelling, "Allahu Akbar" at the protest while throwing the device.

NYPD also found an additional device in a car belonging to one of the suspects yesterday.

Some of the information provided by Jessica Tisch at the press conference moments ago:

While in police custody, bodycam footage shows that Balat said:  “All praise is due to Allah lord of all worlds! I pledge my allegience [sic] to the Islamic State. Die in your rage yu [sic] kuffar!”
“this isn’t a religion that just stands when people talk about the blessed name of the prophet . . . We take action!”

From the criminal complaint:  “BALAT wrote on a piece of paper that he ‘pledge[d] allegience to the Islamic State’ and KAYUMI stated, in substance and in part, that he was affiliated with ISIS; watched ISIS propaganda on his phone; and was partly inspired to carry out his actions that day by ISIS. BALAT additionally stated that they wanted to carry out an attack bigger than the Boston Marathon bombing, which BALAT noted caused only ‘three
deaths.’”
