PICTURED, NYC #ISIS terror attack suspect, Akayed Ullah from Bangladesh

A Bangladeshi national in his 20s has been taken into custody with serious injuries after a suspected pipe bomb he was carrying malfunctioned and exploded prematurely inside a Midtown Manhattan subway station Monday morning.
The explosion happened around 7:20am, in an underground tunnel linking the Port Authority Bus Terminal to Times Square. The underground tunnel is a major thoroughfare for workers during the morning rush hour.
The suspect, identified as 27-year-old Akayed Ullah, was found injured at the scene and rushed to Bellevue Hospital. He was wearing what appears to be a homemade pipe bomb attached to his body with velcro and zip ties.  Authorities say Ullah is talking to investigators at the hospital. 
Three other people also reported to local hospitals for minor injuries like ringing in the ears and headaches.  
There have been reports that Ullah was inspired by ISIS.
