WASHINGTON – Representative Sean Patrick Maloney (NY-18) released the following statement after a man killed at least eight people in Manhattan by driving his truck onto a bike path. Details remain murky, but local, state, and federal authorities have described the incident as a terrorist attack.

“I’m praying for all the innocent people who were killed, those who were hurt, and the families of everyone involved.
