NEW YORK \u2014 Federal prosecutors have released new surveillance video of an alleged arson attack on a government building in New York City<\/a> that houses offices for the FBI, ICE and more.<\/p>\n

Andrew Arrabaca, a 43-year-old man originally from Poughkeepsie, New York<\/a>, is accused of launching fireworks at 26 Federal Plaza in Manhattan before dumping gasoline on the steps outside and lighting it on fire, according to authorities.<\/p>\n

The video shows a man alleged to be him in camouflage pants and a helmet, pulling a cart with an anti-ICE banner hanging from the front.<\/p>\n

The suspect can be seen placing fireworks on the ground before firing them toward pedestrians outside. He reenters the frame with a BB or pellet gun and begins shooting before dumping a can of gasoline on the steps and lighting them on fire.<\/p>\n

Before the video ends, the figure can be seen throwing a box into the flames, which investigators later said contained more fireworks.<\/p>\n

Federal officers arrived and arrested him<\/span> at the scene.<\/p>\n

At least one person was injured by explosive debris, suffering from a gash in the back of their head, according to court filings. Two other people suffered minor injuries.<\/p>\n

Arrabaca is accused of carrying a slew of additional weapons and incendiary devices. He was initially accused of firing an Airsoft rifle, but prosecutors later said it was a BB or pellet gun, and photos show at least two on the ground after his arrest.<\/p>\n

“He is an anti-American, anti-government extremist,” James Barnacle, the assistant director in charge of the FBI New York Field Office, told reporters at a news briefing Monday. “We know that from what he said.” He added that Arrabaca allegedly “came armed, with bad intentions.”<\/p>\n

According to the criminal complaint, Arrabaca allegedly told investigators he had been “motivated to act by anti-government beliefs, including a belief that government authorities were unlawfully harming people” and that he targeted the staircase because he knew it led to a busy entrance.<\/p>\n

Barnacle said Arrabaca is a former U.S. Army soldier<\/span><\/a> who served from 2001 to 2005 as a missile system mechanic. Voter records show he has registered as a Democrat and a member of the left-wing Working Families party.<\/p>\n

Three people suffered minor injuries in the attack.”Mr. Arrabaca was looking to injure people and harm people,” Barnacle said. “He had two axes, a hammer, a machete and three knives.”<\/p>\n

He added that police also recovered six more fireworks, “some other destructive items” as well as anti-ICE literature. Authorities seized Arrabaca’s vehicle and were working to obtain a search warrant as Barnacle delivered his update Monday.<\/p>\n

Arrabaca does not appear to have a criminal record prior to his arrest outside the building.<\/p>\n

The Federal Building has long been a target for extremists, Barnacle said. It’s also one of the most secure locations in Manhattan, surrounded by barricades and road closures.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
