Bomb that injured 29 in New York was 'obviously an act of terrorism,' governor says

An explosion that injured 29 people in Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood was an "intentional act," but there so far are no concrete links to international terrorist groups, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Sunday. Speaking to reporters at the scene, Cuomo said that investigators had found no links to international terrorist groups, but added that "a bomb exploding in New York is obviously an act of terrorism." He said the state planned to deploy 1,000 state police and National Guard officers to patrol the city's train stations and public areas ahead of New Yorkers returning to work on Monday. The increased security, the governor said, was to "err on the side of caution. We want New Yorkers to be confident that New York is up and running and we're doing everything we can" to keep them safe.
