New York City mayoral candidate and Assemblymember Zohran Mamdani received multiple death threats in recent weeks, including a threat to blow up his car, according to his campaign.

The New York City Police Department said on Thursday its hate crime unit was probing anti-Muslim threats against mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, and in another incident U.S. Representative Max Miller of Ohio said he was "run off the road" by a driver with a Palestinian flag.
