On Monday, a would-be suicide bomber caused injuries to himself and three others when he set off a pipe bomb that blew up near New York City's Port Authority bus terminal. After the incident, authorities said 27-year-old Akayed Ullah was inspired by the Islamic State (ISIS) and planned to detonate the bomb right in front of Christmas posters.
Ullah, an immigrant from Bangladesh, reportedly chose the site due to the Christmas theme, and aimed to remind Americans of the ISIS attacks to European Christmas markets.
