Ahmad Kahn Rahami is in custody

New York bombing suspect caught after shoot-out.

New York bombing suspect caught after shoot-out: 'Armed and dangerous' Afghanistan-born man, 28, in custody shooting two cops.
The man wanted in connection for all three bombings in New York and New Jersey after a shootout with police. 

Two officers have reportedly been injured in the shootout with Ahmad Khan Rahami in Linden, New Jersey, a neighboring town of the 28-year-old's home of Elizabeth.

The Saturday bombings in Manhattan and Seaside Park, New Jersey, as well as the attempted bombing of the Elizabeth, New Jersey train station have authorities believing there may be a terror cell active in the area.  

The idea has the law enforcement community on edge as New York City prepares to host delegates from around the world at the United Nations General Assembly this week. 

According to the FBI's wanted poster, Rahami is a naturalized U.S. citizen who was born in Afghanistan. He is about 5'6" tall and weighs about 200 pounds, with brown hair, eyes and facial hair.

'We need to get this guy in right away,' New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said on CNN. 'My experience is one the FBI zeroes in on someone, they will get them.'   

The FBI also revealed that Rahami's last known residence was in Elizabeth, New Jersey, where five pipe bombs were found at the town's train station on Sunday. 

FBI agents conducted a raid of the apartment Monday morning, which is located above a fried chicken restaurant his family owns.

Well, the way they make shows is, they make one show. That show's called a pilot. Then they show that show to the people who make shows, and on the strength of that one show they decide if they're going to make more shows.

Like you, I used to think the world was this great place where everybody lived by the same standards I did, then some kid with a nail showed me I was living in his world, a world where chaos rules not order, a world where righteousness is not rewarded. That's Cesar's world, and if you're not willing to play by his rules, then you're gonna have to pay the price.

You think water moves fast? You should see ice. It moves like it has a mind. Like it knows it killed the world once and got a taste for murder. After the avalanche, it took us a week to climb out. Now, I don't know exactly when we turned on each other, but I know that seven of us survived the slide... and only five made it out. Now we took an oath, that I'm breaking now. We said we'd say it was the snow that killed the other two, but it wasn't. Nature is lethal but it doesn't hold a candle to man.

You see? It's curious. Ted did figure it out - time travel. And when we get back, we gonna tell everyone. How it's possible, how it's done, what the dangers are. But then why fifty years in the future when the spacecraft encounters a black hole does the computer call it an 'unknown entry event'? Why don't they know? If they don't know, that means we never told anyone. And if we never told anyone it means we never made it back. Hence we die down here. Just as a matter of deductive logic.
