A suspect is facing terrorism charges in connection with a machete attack which wounded two NYPD officers in Times Square on New Year's Eve.
Trevor Bickford, 19, has been indicted by a grand jury on multiple counts, including first-degree attempted murder, first-degree attempted murder in the furtherance of an act of terrorism and aggravated assault on a police officer as a crime of terrorism, the Manhattan District Attorney's Office reported Friday. In total, he faces 18 felony counts.
New York City Police Commissioner Keechant Sewell addresses the media during a news conference on Jan. 1, 2023. A man wielding a machete attacked three police officers at the New Year's Eve celebration in New York City, authorities said. Two officers were struck in the head and had to be hospitalized, NYPD Police Commissioner Keechant Sewell said. The suspect also tried to attack a third officer just outside a designated high-security zone surrounding the Times Square festivities.
Law enforcement sources told CBS News earlier this week that Bickford — who is from Wells, Maine — had recently been added to the FBI's terror watchlist. A high-ranking police source Bickford was placed on the list after his aunt reported that he had been radicalized online and expressed a desire to travel overseas and join Islamic extremists.
