MANHATTAN, NEW YORK - A Georgia man who allegedly left an inoperable chemical weapon outside a Manhattan police precinct has been indicted in New York, an incident that helped authorities solve a two-year-old murder in his home state, prosecutors said Tuesday.
Delano Hill, 20, of Suwanee, GA, is facing charges of attempted criminal possession of a chemical or biological weapon, placing a false bomb or hazardous substance, and falsely reporting an incident, the Manhattan District Attorney’s office said.
According to the DA, Hill allegedly placed a plastic bottle at the entrance of the NYPD’s 6th Precinct at 233 West 10th St. in Greenwich Village on Dec. 19, 2024, accompanied by a note claiming the bottle contained chlorine gas. The note also referenced the stabbing of a man named “Mr. Jones” in Suwanee and warned of a second device at Yeager International Airport in West Virginia.
