New York Police confirm New York attack is terror related

A man is being held after an attempted terror attack at America's biggest and busiest bus terminal, officials say.

"Terrorists won't win. We are New Yorkers," said Mayor Bill de Blasio after a blast in an underpass at the Port Authority terminal on Monday.

The suspect, named as Akayed Ullah, 27, was wounded when a "low-tech explosive device" strapped to his body blew up during the rush hour, officials say.

They say three other people suffered minor injuries.
