Eric Adams is the first mayor in New York City history to be indicted while in office.

Federal investigators had seized Adams ’ electronic devices nearly a year ago as part of an investigation focused, at least partly, on campaign contributions and Adams ' interactions with the Turkish government.

It was not immediately clear what laws Adams is accused of breaking or when he might have to appear in court.

Federal authorities also searched the homes of interim police commissioner Thomas Donlan and seized materials unrelated to his police work.

New York City's mayor is expected to face a tough primary election next year .

Many of his declared or expected Democratic challengers in the mayoral race have called on him to resign.
