Cousins arrested after bizarre incident involving possible pipe bomb, machete outside NYC police precinct
Two cousins were arrested Wednesday after a bizarre incident involving a machete and a possible pipe bomb unfolded outside a New York City police precinct.
The New York Police Department said the two men pulled up in a car to the 25th Precinct in East Harlem just before noon.
The driver of the car told officers he had been attacked by the other man with a machete. Police found the weapon in the car and took the suspect into custody.
Police said the victim then told them there was an explosive device in the car. Police found what they called a “potentially viable improvised explosive device.”

Fox News Digital obtained a photo of the rather large device.
The NYPD bomb squad was then called in to investigate.
At a Wednesday afternoon press conference, police said they were still working to determine if the device was operational.

Deputy Chief Jason Huerta of the NYPD’s Counter Terrorism Division said the suspect who was in possession of the device was “rambling on about about incoherent ideas and paranoia.”
Police said both men involved in the incident had between 10 and 20 arrests, but no recent arrests within the last five to 10 years.

Authorities added that the incident does not appear to be motivated by terrorism, or political in nature.
“At this time, it looks like it was basically a domestic dispute. The person in possession of the device had potential emotional issues. That’s what it looks like to us at this time.”

Newark-bound United flight returns to LA airport for evacuation after reported fire
NEWARK, New Jersey — A United Airlines flight headed to Newark, New Jersey returned to the Los Angeles airport Monday about 40 minutes after taking off for an emergency evacuation after a reported fire, authorities said.
All flights at the LAX International Airport were ordered to remain on the ground for about half an hour during the flight’s return and evacuation, according to advisories from the Federal Aviation Administration. No injuries were reported.
The flight, which was en route to Newark Liberty International Airport returned to LAX to address an issue with one of the engines, the airline said in a statement. There was no mention of a fire, but the LA Fire Department said it responded and there was a fire that was contained as of an hour after the plane’s landing.
The flight took off at 10:43 a.m., began to turn around at about 11 a.m. and landed again at 11:19 a.m., according to flight tracker FlightAware.
The LA Fire Department said they assisted with the evacuation of more than 250 passengers and crew. Passengers exited the plane on the taxiway using slides and stairs and were taken to the terminal, the airline said.
The airplane was a Boeing 787-9, a variant of the popular line of 787 Dreamliner long-haul aircraft.
