Well this was quick work. According to an instagram post by New York State Senator Marty Golden, the FBI has already taken into custody four individuals connected to the Chelsea bombing.

Earlier they were tearing up an Uber car that was caught in the explosion:
An Uber driver ferrying a woman and two little girls was caught in Saturday night’s bomb blast — and by Sunday afternoon, the FBI was dismantling his car.
The driver said he’d picked up a woman and two girls and they were driving along W. 23rd St. in Chelsea around 8:30 p.m. — unaware that in seconds his car was going to be caught in a storm of shrapnel.
“I just picked them up over there on 23rd St. and Seventh and then boom there was an explosion,” driver Md. Alam told the Daily News.
“I just pulled over here and called 911 and the passenger called 911. My car is damaged,” Alam said.
Hopefully we’ll get some details on who targeted Americans, and for what reason….
