Guilty verdict in Chelsea bombing trial

The jury found Chelsea bomber Ahmad Rahimi guilty of all charges against him after four hours of deliberation, report Ellie Kaufman, Lauren del Valle and Lawrence Crook III for CNN. He planted a bomb in Chelsea on September 17, 2016 that injured 30 people and another bomb that failed to detonate. The mandatory sentence for these offenses is life in prison.

The bomber will be tried in other jurisdictions for attempted bombings in New Jersey and for the shootout with police that ended in his arrest.
