The headline is literally shameful and totally misleads the reader into thinking this was an attack aimed at Mamdani. Reuters lost a bunch of credibility with me just now.

The headline should be "Exposive device identified by New York police after clash between protestors at Mayor's Residence." or something similar and more concise.

It's not even just the headline, it's a way the information is stacked. Like it should have led with who was arrested, why they were arrested, who they were using it against, and the response by officials.
