Mayor Eric Adams, a retired police captain who promised to reduce crime when he was elected three years ago, has been indicted after a federal corruption investigation, according to people with knowledge of the matter.

The indictment raised immediate questions about Adams’s ability to serve as mayor. He is the first mayor in modern New York City history to be charged while in office.

“I always knew that if I stood my ground for New Yorkers that I would be a target — and a target I became,” Adams said in a statement. “If I am charged, I am innocent, and I will fight this with every ounce of my strength and spirit.”

The indictment is sealed, and what charges he will face is unclear. The New York Times reported that prosecutors were focusing on interactions that Adams and his campaign had with the Turkish government.
