Two suspected Islamic extremists have been arrested for allegedly tossing nail bombs at Christian protesters not far from Gracie Mansion, the official residence of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani.
The event unfolded during dueling protests, with one group demonstrating against what they described as the “Islamic Takeover of New York City” or “anti-Islamification,” organized by controversial right-wing activist Jake Lang. That event drew roughly 25 to 30 participants.
A larger group of about 125 counter-protesters gathered in opposition, leading to tensions that escalated into physical altercations. The demonstrations began around 11 a.m. Eastern Time, with initial clashes between the two groups starting not long after.
Approximately 30 minutes after the event started, a man emerged from the group of counter protesters and tossed what appeared to be an explosive device towards Lang’s group. The object landed in a crosswalk near police officers, producing flames and smoke before striking a barrier and extinguishing itself.
The suspect — identified as 18-year-old Amir Balat — then reportedly retrieved a second similar device from a 19-year-old accomplice, lit it, and dropped it along East End Avenue. The devices were described by authorities as smaller than a football, wrapped in black tape, and containing nuts, bolts, screws, and a hobby fuse.
