BREAKING NEWS: FBI hunts for 'armed and dangerous' Afghanistan-born man, 28, over Manhattan bombing as NY governor says attack could be 'terrorism with a foreign connection'


The FBI has released the picture and name of a man wanted for questioning in the New York City bombing on Saturday.
Anyone with information on the whereabouts of 28-year-old Ahmad Khan Rahami are being asked to contact police immediately. He should not be approached, as he is considered armed and dangerous.
Twenty-nine people were injured Saturday night when a pressure-cooker bomb exploded inside a dumpster in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan.
Surveillance video reportedly shows the same man dropping off a bomb on that street, as well as another street where an unexploded IED was later found.
According to the FBI's wanted poster, Rahami is a naturalized U.S. citizen who was born in Afghanistan. He is about 5'6" tall and weighs about 200 pounds. He has brown hair, eyes and facial hair.
'We need to get this guy in right away,' New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said on CNN. 'My experience is one the FBI zeroes in on someone, they will get them.'
The FBI also revealed that Rahami's last known residence was in Elizabeth, New Jersey, where pipe bombs were found over the weekend.
