Mayor Eric Adams told The Post he has become a target and will fight to prove his innocence after he reportedly became the first sitting New York City mayor to be indicted on Thursday.
“I always knew that if I stood my ground for New Yorkers that I would be a target — and a target I became,” Adams said in a statement to The Post.
“If I am charged, I am innocent, and I will fight this with every ounce of my strength and spirit.”
