Reports said the attackers armed with metal utensils smashed multiple glass windows of the building.
Turkey’s consul general in New York Ozgur said the attackers smashed the windows of the building at 3:14 a.m. that day. No one was injured in the attack, but 12 windows and doors of the building were damaged.
At present, the New York Police Department has cordoned off the building and is investigating the incident.
