Police say the device was not a smoke bomb and could have caused serious injury or death. #NYC #PublicSafety According to #NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch, the bomb squad’s preliminary analysis found the device appeared to be a jar wrapped in black tape with nuts, bolts, screws, and a hobby fuse. Two demonstrations were happening nearby, one anti-Islam protest with about 20 people and a counter protest with roughly 125 participants. Police say tensions escalated after pepper spray was used, and an 18 year old counter protester allegedly lit and threw one device and dropped a second in the street. Investigators are still determining whether explosive material was inside. Help this information get to more voters. 🇺🇸 A well-informed electorate is a prerequisite to Democracy.—Thomas Jefferson"
