Man who set off bombs in N.J., NYC sentenced to life in prison

-

A man who set off small bombs on a New York City street and at a charity race in New Jersey has been sentenced to multiple terms of life in prison.

Ahmad Khan Rahimi injured 30 people when one of his pressure cooker bombs exploded in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborho­od in 2016. That blast happened just hours after a small pipe bomb exploded along a Marine Corps race in Seaside Heights, N.J.

Asked to speak at his sentencing Tuesday, Rahimi said he doesn’t “harbor hate for anyone.”
