A peaceful beginning to the workweek was shattered Monday after an explosion rattled through one of the busiest transit hubs in New York City, causing the authorities to evacuate hundreds of commuters and throwing the morning into chaos.

The Police Department said that one person was in custody after the blast echoed through the passageway connecting the Times Square and Port Authority subway stations shortly before 7:30 a.m.

The suspect, identified by the police as Akayed Ullah, 27, from Brooklyn, was in serious condition at Bellevue Hospital Center. The Fire Department said four injuries had been reported.

New York explosion at Manhattan bus terminal

A man is being held after an attempted terror attack at America’s biggest and busiest bus terminal, officials say.

“Terrorists won’t win. We are New Yorkers,” said Mayor Bill de Blasio after a blast in an underpass at the Port Authority terminal on Monday.

The suspect, named as Akayed Ullah, 27, was wounded when a “low-tech explosive device” strapped to his body blew up during the rush hour, officials say.

They say three other people suffered minor injuries.

Mayor De Blasio said the suspect was believed to have acted alone.

A photo circulating on social media shows a man, said to be the suspect, lying on the ground with his clothes ripped and lacerations on his upper body. 

White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said President Donald Trump had been briefed on the incident.

The Port Authority Bus Terminal serves more than 65 million people a year.
