The NYPD discovered bomb-making paraphernalia inside a car parked on the Upper East Side Sunday — a day after a pair of ISIS-inspired extremists hurled highly dangerous explosives during a protest near Gracie Mansion, according to authorities and sources. The “suspicious device” was found in a Hyundai on East End Avenue between 81st Street and 82nd Street in connection with an ongoing investigation into the highly volatile explosive devices thrown at a rowdy demonstration outside the mayor’s residence on Saturday, according to the NYPD and sources. Officers closed off the street and evacuated residences and businesses surrounding the vehicle, believed to be linked to one of the suspects, before bomb squad members safely removed the device for further testing.
