NYC Truck Attack Suspect Planned Mass Casualty Plot
FBI complaint details say Saipov yelled Allahu Akbar after crashing a truck into a Hudson River Greenway bike path near Halloween parade crowds. He planned to strike pedestrians at West Side Highway and Brooklyn Bridge, rented the truck in Passaic NJ, and hoped to display ISIS flags. He cited ISIS videos as inspiration and told investigators he began planning about a year earlier. Authorities sought a second man, Mukhammazdoi Kadirov, in connection with the attack.
