Search warrants executed in Times Square probe
Investigators have executed search warrants in several places in the Northeast and detained two people in connection with the attempted Times Square car bombing probe, Boston FBI spokeswoman Gail Marcinkiewicz said Thursday.
"They do not relate to any known immediate threat to the public or any plot against the United States," Marcinkiewicz said.
She said two people have been taken into custody for "alleged immigration violations."
A federal law enforcement source says that search warrants are being executed in Boston, New York, and New Jersey.
“We can confirm that search warrants have been executed in several locations in the Northeast in connection with the investigation into the attempted Time Square bombing," a Justice Department official told CNN. "Two individuals encountered during the searches were taken into federal custody for alleged immigration violations.
"At this time we can provide no further details as the investigation is ongoing. These searches are the product of evidence that has been gathered in the investigation subsequent to the attempted Times Square bombing and do not relate to any known immediate threat to the public or active plot against the United States.”
