[VIDEO BELOW] The man suspected of placing bombs around New York and New Jersey is in custody following a shootout with Linden Police, officials said.
Two police officers were reportedly injured in the shootout.
The President didn’t mention the breaking arrest in his address, apparently because it occurred as he was about to begin.
The suspect, Ahamad Rahami, 28, is from Elizabeth, and of Afghan descent, the FBI said earlier today.

It’s at times like these we have to express gratitude to local and federal officers. Thank you for what you do and for putting your lives on the line. To the officers hurt, Get well real soon.
Also- the speed it took to get these terrorists is commendable.
it is at times like these that I think “sure, let’s let those muslims into this country. They are such upstanding citizens and add so much to society”
Oh, I’m sure they’ll start referring to him as the “alleged” terrorist.
Ixnay, please don’t group all people together. That could be said to any of us. Some people are truly sick to do something like this. But i do agree, we all need to be aware, as I have two children and four grandchildren. To me, this is really scary. With all our holidays coming up soon for ALLl of us, it does make us uneasy. Again, there are some wonderful Muslims here that DO contribute who have fought for our freedoms and died in our wars. We are all Americans, and we are very fortunate to live here.
