Cnn that search warrant or warrants had been executed at the suspects home in new jersey throughout the night. And now we do have some video on that. As you can see, this is the new jersey home. Potential evidence being brought out of that home. Law enforcement has also confirmed that he lives, the suspect, lives in this home with his wife and three children. Also expected today, search warrants to be executed on the truck, which is still at the primary crime scene, 1. 5 blocks away from where i am right now, as well as his own vehicle, which is at home depot, which he left when he rented the home depot pickup truck. Now, Law Enforcement is also telling us that they are looking at social media sites. And that investigators have found social media linked to the suspect, sayfullo saipov, and those sites are also linked to isisrelated material. What is actually on there, we do not know. But what we also understand is that the suspect, before and after his surgery last night, investigators were talking to him, trying to talk to him, possibly asking him important questions. And what we are learning is that all right. Were going to jump over to this press Conference Starting right now. Some of the things weve learned overnight. Well get an update on the injured from fdny commissioner, dan nigro, and youll hear from mayor de blasio and Governor Cuomo. I want to thanks kri vance for being here, june kim, commissioner roger perino is here from the new york state Homeland Security, and then joe esposito, the commissioner of oem is here also. I would also like to thank the state police for being here today and for everything they did yesterday.

You have to understand that this investigation is still in its fantasy. We do not yet have all the answers. And there are details today and therell be more down the road. And not everything were going to be able to share with you. You understand that, in terms of casualties, this was the worst terror attack in new york city since september 11th, 2011. I want to take a minute to commend all new yorker, i want to commend everyone who lives in, works in, and visits our great city pause no one in this city is complacent. Esaw the strength of that resolve last night with the very large crowds that attended the annual halloween parade in the village and well see it again on sunday, when 50,000 people compete in a marathon and another 2. 5 Million People cheer them along the route. The nypd, the fbi, and all of our Law Enforcement and private sector partners remembers our past. And we work very, very hard together, each and every day to prevent the type of thing that occurred here yesterday. What happened yesterday was not okay. And it will never something any of us will just accept as inevitable. Since 9 11, we again along with our partners at the local, state, and federal level have disrupted or prevented two dozen plots against new york city. Countless lives have been saved. But none of that matters when eight innocent lives are taken by a criminal, committing a cowardly act, driving a rental truck. We are working hard to get to the bottom of exactly what happened yesterday and why. And were working tirelessly to prevent anything like this from getting repeated. I tell you as often as i can, that true Public Safety is a shared responsibility. Law enforcement, government agencies, are doing what we can. And the men and women who work with us do it better than anyone, anywhere in the world. But we knneed everyones help. There are more than 8. 5 Million People in new york city, plus all the people who commute in every day and all the tourists. Thats a minimum of 17 million extra eyes and ears and gut feelings that can remain vigilant on behalf of all of us. And i talk about this all the time. If you see something out there that doesnt look right, if it makes you uncomfortable, you have an obligation to make a call or to flag down a police car. At least give us the opportunity to investigate that. I want to thank everyone for their ongoing help today and every day and thank you again for this Swift Response yesterday by the nypd officers, the new york state police, the firefighters, and ems workers who did a really great job under the circumstances. And right now let me introduce fdny commissioner dan ni dprkgr. Dan will give you an update on the injuries from yesterday. Dan . Thank you. And im going to be very nonspecific regarding the privacy of the victims. There were 20 victims to at yesterdays attack. Six of them were pronounced dead at the scene. We transported the 14 victims to three hospitals. Two of those victims were pronounced, so the total number of deaths were eight. Six of those were citizens of other countries. Five from argentina, one from germany. Two were americans. Of the 12 remaining, thankfully, three have been released from t hospital. Nine remain in the hospital. Four of those were critically injured, but are in stable condition. The others are seriously injured. The injuries ranged from a bilateral amputation to serious head, neck, back, and chest trauma, and trauma to arms and legs. This was a heinous attack that resulted in eight deaths and serious injuries. Our prayers are with the families of those who died and those who remain in the hospital. Thank you, commissioner nigro. And thank you to all the men and women of the fdny and all the first sporresponders, all the e who went to the aid of those who were afflicted and did it so well. I want to start by thanking all of my colleagues that are here. Thank you, Governor Cuomo and all of our state partners who are here, all of our federal partners. Thank you, congressman, jerry nadler, for joining us. Everyone is here in common cause. This was an attack on the United States of america and an attack on new york city and an attack on our people. And it was the definition of terrorism. An effort to take away peoples hope and spirit and to make them change. And what new yorkers showed already is we will not change. We will not be cowed. We will not be thrown off by anything. And this cowardly act targeting the most innocent people in the middle of the most innocent pursuits, was meant to make people feel they could not go about their daily lives. And what we saw last night, Governor Cuomo and i went to our annual halloween parade. A million new yorkers showed up for that event. And as we spoke with them, they were undeterred. They were strong. It made me very proud of new york city. And all the people of this country, to see that strength in the face of adversity. This morning, people went to work. Kids went to school. No one thought there was any choice, but to stand up to this act of terror. So as we now move forward, we start with giving our prayers to the families of the eight who were killed. They, as you heard, six of them came from other nations here. Because they saw new york as a special place to be and we now, and forever, will consider them new yorkers. They shared this tragedy with us. We will wremember them as new yorkers. They were here because this city is a beacon to people all over the world, a place that every kind of person comes to and is respected. And that wont change. 8. 5 Million People here, we understand this was an attack on our values. It was an effort to break our spirit. But as an effort to break our spirit, it failed. New york city is a very strong and resilient place. We have great faith in the men and women who protect us. We have such parade in the nypd and we see them on duty and we know they are the very best. So were strong, were resilient people. Because we know were protected and we know that this place works when people dont feel deterred. And ill tell you, this violence was an effort to make us blink. And we wont blink. We woken change. The nypd yesterday showed us once again how much new yorkers can rely on them and i want to commend officer ryan nash. I spoke to him earlier today. A good, young man, five years on the force. He was very humble about what he did, but what he did was extraordinary and gave people such faith and such appreciation in our police force. Now, this investigation, as youve heard, has just begun. Its important to emphasize again this morning, that we do not see any additional credible and specific threats against new york city. We will constantly keep people posted. But we do ask everyone to be vigilant. Commissioner oneill laid out what everyone has to understand. Be a part of the solution. Share what you know with the police. Dont think twice. Give information to our officers. And many of those previous efforts to undermine us the commissioner referenced, those almost two dozen previous efforts to attack new york city, a number of them were stopped because good people came forward with information in time. We need everyone to understand that they can do that, too. As we move forward, we will look forward to the marathon on sunday. It will go on as scheduled. It will be an extraordinary event, as it always is. It will be well protected, as it always is, and we will take additional measures to ensure that. But my message to all new yo yorkers is, do what you do best. Be new yorkers. Be strong, be proud, be resilient. Show the whole world right now that we will not be moved by terror. Again, you see everyone here, Everyone Agency united in common cause. And this is also part of what makes us strong. And with that, i want to thank for his efforts and the states efforts and welcome Governor Cuomo. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you very much. Let me begin by asking us all to remember in our thoughts and prayers the eight lives that were lost, tragically. That is damaged. That can never be undone. And there are families today feeling pain that is unimaginable. Mayor de blasio, to the nypd, the fdny, the state police, i was on the scene yesterday, the performance was phenomenal. And the coordination and the effort was top shelf. And it gives one reassurance to know that there is this level of professionalism and expertise protecting the people of this city and this state. Its also, too, important to remember that while the leadership of the Police Departments is top shelf, officer nash, five years on the job, 28 years old, he was a hero. And the nypd is not just the leadership, its the men and women who are out there every day, who are on the first line, and i think officer nash really showed how important they are and how talented and how praif. Brave. So we all applaud and congratulate him. I spoke to the Homeland Security secretary yesterday, who pledges full coordination with all of the federal efforts. And the fbi. I think its important that we are all working as one, and in this kind of situation, there is no alternative. This is not a time to have politics. This is not a time to point fingers. This is not a time to find blame. Its a time to come together. And work for a common goal. The effort yesterday killed eight people. But in my opinion, the effort failed. Because the effort was not to kill eight people. The effort was to disrupt us, to terrorize us, to scare us, to create mayhem. Thats the effort. Thats the goal on all of these attacks. New yorks a special target, because we have that statue of liberty in our harbor that were proud of, holding up the torch for freedom and democracy, and weve seen it all around the world, and it is to create mayhem and terrorize. And it failed. The mayor is exactly right. The halloween parade last night was a beautiful example of the failure of the attempt. A million new yorkers came out, with their families, with their children. They celebrated. They were there. Just a number of hours after the incident and it was new yorks way of saying, we will not be deterred. We are not terrorized. You will not win. We said that in 1993, after the World Trade Center bombing, the first time. We said that after 9 11. And we said that yesterday. Unprompted. Spontaneously. They were all there. And the mayor and i marched and it was really reaassuring to see the resilience of new yorkers. Now, youll see increased Police Presence all across the metropolitan area. We are going to double the number of bodies at places of congre congregation, airports, tunnels, penn station, which has 600,000 people that go through it every day. The most heavily traveled transportation hub in the hemisphere. I dont want anyone to draw any inference from that. We dont know anything. Were not responding to anything. Its just as a precaution. Same thing at the marathon. The marathon will go on. Because new york depose on. And its an important event for all of new yorkers. Again, i want to end where i started. The effort, by the first responders, was phenomenal. The reaction by new yorkers, as evidenced last night, this morning, people got up, they went to work, children went to school. And thats what makes new yorkers special. That strength, that resilience, that ability to be undeterred in the face of ugliness and the actions of a depraved coward. Because thats what this was. This was the actions of a depraved coward. There is no grand statement to what was done. It was the act of a coward. And thats the way it should be regarded, because thats the way it was. I was proud to be the governor of the state of new york last night. Im proud every day, but seeing new yorkers response made me feel especially proud. And again, to the team you see assembled up here, the fbi, the nypd, the fdny, the seamless coordination really is something to behold and a source of strength and comfort, i hope, for all new yorkers. Thank you. Thanks, governor. Thanks, mr. Mayor. Just to reiterate what the governor and the mayor said. Nows not the time to live in fear. Its not the time to be fearful. Nows the time for all new yorkers to be strong, as we always are. Right now chief carlos gomez, our chief of department, hes going to talk about what were doing to increase security throughout the city. Carlos . Gardeniood morning, everyone. Immediately following yesterdays attack in Lower Manhattan, the department quickly mobilized and deployed additional resources, Additional Police officers and additional heavy weapons teams to key locations throughout the city. Last nights halloween parade, which attracted over a million participants was also security at that parade was also enhanced. We added more sand trucks, we added more blocker vehicles to the side streets that led on to sixth avenue. And we also assigned more heavy weapons teams, not just to the parade, but to the surrounding area. New yorkers and others who utilize our transit systems will see a lot more officers. Youll see more officers on the trains. Youll see more officers on the platforms. They should expect more bag checks at more stations. They will be more k9s, explosivedetecting k9s in our subways systems and weapons teams will also be deployed to major hubs and other stations throughout the city. There are some traffic closures that remain in effect. And i would like to point out that is the west side highway from 14th street down to the tunnel. It still remains an active crime scene and we anticipate it will be closed until early this evening. So, weve assigned traffic agents to the area, but motorists, please avoid that area. And were just a few days away from the new york city marathon, which over 51,000 runners will participate. As the commissioner said, 2. 5 million spectators will line the streets in all the boroughs in our city. And weve enhanced security for this also. Its going to be a very safe event. Weve added more sand trucks, more blocker vehicles. I cant give you the exact number. I do have it, i cant give it to you, but it will be the most ever deployed at this event. We more than doubled our observation teams, our rooftop observation posts, as well as our countersniper teams from the Emergency Services unit throughout the boroughs, not just here in manhattan. And weve also added more heavy weapons teams throughout the city. Officers from our Emergency Services unit, from our Strategic Response group, and from our Critical Response command. Theyll at fixed locations along the route. But they will also have a mobile response capability, if they are needed elsewhere. And this increase will supplement the already large substantial detail of uniformed officers that youll see along the route, but there will also be officers in civilian attire, in plain clothes that you wont see. Theyll be mixing in with the crowds to detect any suspicious activity. K9s, a large number of k9s will be deployed along the route, as will counterterrorism officers, with their resources and equipment. Our aviation, helicopters, will patrol from above. Theyll survey rooftops, as well as the route. And certainly, Traffic Control agents, theyll have the hard task of keeping traffic moving in the affected areas. As the commissioner said, 8. 5 million new yorkers, several million other tourists, thats a lot of eyes and ears in our city. If you see something, say something. Tell an officer. Call 911. Or certainly, you could call the new york city terrorism hotline, 888nycsafe and we la look for to be a very safe and enjoyable sunday. Thanks, carlos. Now well hear from bill sweeney, the assistant director in charge of the new york fbi office. Bill and his people continue to be great partners in new york city. Bill . Thank you, jimmy. Good morning, everybody. Our thoughts and prayers from the bureau are with all the victims families this morning and for all those that are still recovering. Right now the new york jttf is following up on related leads, with as we work to process our intelligence information related to yesterdays attack. Like last year, our partner jttf in newark is also fully engaged. Both of those jttfs, both here and in newark, are operating 24 7 and will continue to do so for the foreseeable f
