The man accused of stabbing a New York City police officer and shooting two others shouted “Allahu akbar!” three times during an attack that suggests a link to terrorism, police officials said.

Dzenan Camovic, 20, was captured on surveillance footage in the borough of Brooklyn on June 3 rounding a street corner before abruptly plunging a knife into a police officer standing guard outside a store, officials say.
