Fox News has reported that a person with purported connections to the main suspect in the recent car bombing near a fertility clinic in Palm Springs has been taken into custody.

The suspect, identified as 32-year-old Daniel Park, was arrested at John F. Kennedy Airport in New York City overnight and is set to appear in a Brooklyn federal court Wednesday afternoon before being extradited to California, according to a law enforcement source. 

The FBI and Port Authority Police Department did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.

The FBI has classified the bombing as an act of domestic terrorism while pointing to the suspect’s ideological motivation as the cause for the violence. The organization previously confirmed none of the embryos were harmed in the attack. 

“I received a call saying there was a massive explosion that destroyed a couple of our buildings,” the American Reproductive Centers wrote on Facebook after the attack.

“My biggest concern was obviously my staff and the embryos we have in storage,” said Dr. Maher Abdallah, the clinic’s director. “Fortunately for us, our staff was unharmed and the IVF lab is intact, untouched, unharmed. The embryos are safe.”

Fox News Digital’s Sarah Rumpf-Whitten contributed to this report.
