Federal agents arrived at Gracie Mansion at around 6 a.m., apparently to subpoena New York City Mayor Eric Adams to appear in federal court at a future date.
About a dozen agents were spotted, some carrying bags, as they entered through the East Gate, accompanied by NYPD officers. They spent at least an hour inside the mayor’s residence.
The mayor was served with a summons and they took his cellphone.
Alex Spiro, Mayor Adams’ attorney released a statement saying:
“Federal agents appeared this morning at Gracie Mansion in an effort to create a spectacle (again) and take Mayor Adams phone (again). He has not been arrested and looks forward to his day in court.”
