Adams, a retired police captain who was elected as New York City\u2019s 110th mayor nearly three years ago on a promise to rein in crime, has been indicted following a federal corruption investigation, people with knowledge of the matter said on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The indictment remained sealed on Wednesday night, and it was unclear what charge or charges Mr. Adams will face. But the federal investigation has focused at least in part on whether Mr. Adams and his campaign conspired with the Turkish government to receive illegal foreign donations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">When the indictment is made public, Mr. Adams will become the first New York City mayor to face a federal charge while in office.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The indictment promised to reverberate across the nation\u2019s largest city and beyond, plunging Mr. Adams\u2019s embattled administration further into chaos just months before he is set to face challengers in a hotly contested mayoral primary.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In a statement, Mayor Eric Adams said he had done nothing wrong.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cI always knew that if I stood my ground for New Yorkers that I would be a target \u2014 and a target I became,\u201d he said. \u201cIf I am charged, I am innocent and I will fight this with every ounce of my strength and spirit.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Brendan R.
