The man threatened passers-by, lit a fire and set off fireworks, police said, and was then detained. The building houses an Immigration and Customs Enforcement office.
Explosive device
Oh shit
fireworks
What the fuck NY Times?
Plus pouring a bunch of gasoline and ignoring that. Pretty definitely an anti-ICE protest
I like that the NYTimes called fireworks an explosive device to make it seem worse than it really was.

Also “explosive devices” to the NYT probably.
The stench of desperation 🤣
A woman who lives across the street from the building said she ran over to her window after hearing the pop of the fireworks. She said she saw a man pick up a gun, which prompted her to
Get the heck away from the window? I know that’s what I would do if I saw that shit going down. But no, instead she decided to
grab her cellphone and start recording a video.
Yup, peak 2026 right there. In fairness, after selling that video to the NYT she might be able to afford groceries this week.
If im in a high rise and some dude is down on the street engaging in shenanigans, I’m not going to be super worried that I’ll be targeted.
I don’t trust their aim
You got me excited for nothing.
When I hears about what he was carrying I was expecting it to be a teenager.
