Three NYC police officers are in stable condition after being struck by a man wielding a machete near Times Square, NYPD officials said.
"I want to be very clear ... there is no ongoing threat," said Mike Driscoll, the FBI assistant director in charge of the New York field office."We believe this was a sole individual at this time," he said, adding, "There is nothing to indicate otherwise."
Driscoll said the FBI, through the task force, is working closely with NYPD to determine the nature of the attack and "will run every lead to the ground."
