*(CNN) — New York City Mayor Eric Adams has been indicted on at least one federal criminal charge, two sources familiar with the matter tell CNN.

The New York Times was the first to report the news of the indictment.

The indictment follows a monthslong federal investigation into campaign fundraising violations and foreign influence. The charges he is facing are not publicly known at this time. Adams has previously denied any wrongdoing, and he has frequently repeated that he told members of his campaign and administration to follow the law.

“I always knew that If I stood my ground for New Yorkers I would be a target—and a target I became. If I am charged, I am innocent and I will fight this with every ounce of my strength and spirit,” Adams said responding to the news on Wednesday night.

CNN has sought comment from lawyers for the mayor and City Hall. The US attorney’s office for the Southern District of New York has declined to comment.
