At least 15 people were killed and dozens injured when a pickup truck plowed into a New Year’s crowd on Bourbon Street in New Orleans, USA, an act the FBI is investigating as terrorism. The suspect, Shamsud-Din Jabbar, a Texas native and Army veteran, was killed in a shootout with police and had declared allegiance to ISIS in videos recorded before the attack.
Public scrutiny has since intensified, with theories ranging from employee involvement to broader institutional failures fueling conspiracy theories.
Jabbar has been identified as the suspect who intentionally rammed a pickup truck into a large crowd on Bourbon Street early in the morning on New Year’s Day.
