After an attempted terrorist attack near New York’s Times Square in December 2017, the perpetrator was sentenced to life imprisonment.
This was announced by a court in Manhattan. As early as November 2018, a jury found the man guilty of illegal possession of weapons, suspected terrorism and terrorist threats. She took it as proven that he had tried to blow himself up in a subway tunnel with a self-made pipe bomb. He was inspired by the terrorist militia IS, but acted alone.
