Eight people were killed and nearly a dozen were badly hurt in Tuesday's attack on a lower Manhattan bike path

What to Know

  • Sayfullo Saipov wrote in a note found in his truck that he rammed into people in New York City for ISIS, sources say
  • He's an Uzbek national who lives in Paterson, New Jersey, as a permanent resident; he has a wife and two children
  • He worked as a commercial truck driver and Uber Driver. The popular ride-sharing service said he was banned after Tuesday's attack

Sayfullo Habibullaevic Saipov, the 29-year-old truck driver suspected in the Manhattan bike path rampage that killed eight people and gravely injured others in what authorities have described as the worst terrorist attack in New York City since 9/11, is an immigrant from Uzbekistan who came to the U.S. in 2010. 

Saipov came to America legally through a diversity via lottery program and is believed to have most recently lived in New Jersey, though he has ties to Florida and other states.
