New York (CNN)[Breaking news update at 11:29 p.m.]
New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio says early indications are that the explosion "was an intentional act."
But de Blasio says "there is no evidence at this point of a terror connection" and there is no "credible and specific threat" to New York City.
The mayor says they also believe here is no specific connection to the earlier incident in New Jersey.
De Blasio says he can confirm "none of those injured are likely to die."
NYPD Commisoner James O'Neill says there have been 29 injured as a result of the explosion.
The "exact nature and cause of this explosion has not yet been determined," O'Neill says.

The NYPD Special Operations Division says a possible secondary device has been located.

An explosion in the Chelsea neighborhood of New York on Saturday night injured at least 25 people, the fire department said.
None of those 25 people has life-threatening injuries, according to a tweet from the New York Police Department's Counterterrorism Bureau.
Gas has been ruled out as the cause of the explosion, a law enforcement source said.
The preliminary belief of investigators is that the blast was caused by an explosive device in or near a dumpster, a law enforcement source told CNN. The source stressed this is preliminary and is not conclusive.
The explosion in New York comes after an explosion in New Jersey that authorities believe was meant to disrupt a Marine Corps charity run. Three pipe-bomb-type devices wired together were found near the boardwalk in Seaside Park. No injuries were reported and a four-block area was evacuated for most of the day, authorities said.
