FBI seizes NYC mayor’s phone ahead of the expected unsealing of an indictment

In a video speech released Wednesday night, Eric Adams vowed to fights any charges against him

FBI agents entered the official residence of New York City Mayor Eric Adams and seized his phone early Thursday morning, hours before an indictment detailing criminal charges against the Democrat was expected to be made public.

Adams was indicted by a grand jury on federal criminal charges that remain sealed, according to two people familiar with the matter who spoke with The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the matter publicly.
