A vehicle with a placard reading ‘Federal Law Enforcement’ on its dashboard was parked outside the mayor’s Gracie Mansion home on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, a witness says
Federal agents search Gracie Mansion, the official residence of the mayor of New York, on Sept. 26 after Mayor Eric Adams was indicted on federal criminal charges.Federal agents searched New York Mayor Eric Adams’s residence on Thursday morning, after he was indicted on criminal charges following a long-running investigation that has sent the largest U.S. city’s government into turmoil.
Adams’ lawyer Alex Spiro in a statement confirmed the presence of federal agents at Gracie Mansion. He accused authorities of trying “to create a spectacle” and said they had taken the mayor’s phone.The exact charges Adams faces remain uncertain, as the indictment was still under seal. It remained unclear whether Adams would be arrested or surrender voluntarily, and when he may appear in court.
In his video message, Adams vowed to remain in office while fighting any charges, defying calls from other Democratic politicians to resign. Before the news broke, U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, also a Democrat, became the first member of Congress to urge him to step down, saying it would be “for the good of the city.”
Authorities have also sought information about Adams’ interactions with Israel, China, Qatar, South Korea and Uzbekistan, according to the Times.
