Two people in custody after 'suspicious devices' found outside Zohran Mamdani's official residence

"Two suspicious devices were found outside of the mayor's home. The NYPD spokesperson added that there were no injuries and the investigation remains ongoing. It was not immediately clear if Mayor Zohran Mamdani and first lady Rama Duwaji were home at the time."
