New York Governor Andrew Cuomo says there is no link to international terrorism in Saturday night’s New York explosion.

“Whoever placed these bombs, we will find and they will be brought to justice,” New York governor Andrew Cuomo told reporters at the scene. “We will not allow these kinds of people and these kinds of threats to disrupt our life in New York.”
…He and other officials said no evidence had been found linking the bombs to major international terrorist groups. Such an intentional explosion in a public place was, however, “generically a terrorist activity”, the governor said.
“There is no link at this time at this preliminary stage to international terrorism. You can guess you can hypothesize or you can just wait for the facts and go from there. I’d be dubious on speculating on what we don’t know.”
