A Manhattan grand jury has indicted New York Mayor Eric Adams on federal criminal charges, two sources familiar confirmed to Fox News. The details about the still-sealed indictment remain bleak, according to reports.

The New York Times first reported on the indictment, adding that the charge or charges Adams faces is unclear.

Several people have already been raided in the orbit of the 63-year-old former NYPD captain.

In February, FBI agents raided the home of Winnie Greco, one of his top aides, in the Bronx. In November, feds swarmed the property of another aide, Cenk Ocal, a former Turkish airlines executive who joined the mayor’s transition team.
