NEW YORK — New York City on Tuesday was bracing for the unprecedented indictment of a former president, as Donald Trump was scheduled to face charges in a Manhattan courtroom after being indicted by a grand jury.
The city was on high alert for the afternoon hearing, with officials promising escalated security and urging anyone who plans to protest to behave.
“New York is already always, always ready,” Mayor Eric Adams said Monday. “While there may be some rabble-rousers ... our message is clear and simple: Control yourselves.”
