Police bodycam footage released on Friday revealed the sequence of events that led to the fatal shooting of an Islamic State group-inspired attacker in New Orleans. The attacker, identified as Shamsud-Din Jabbar, drove his white F-150 truck into a crowd of revelers on Bourbon Street, killing 14 people and injuring dozens on New Year's Day.
After crashing his vehicle, Jabbar fired shots at police officers from inside the truck. Officers on the scene, including Christian Beyer, Jacobie Jordan, and Nigel Daggs, responded by returning fire. The officers' quick actions were commended by New Orleans Police Department Superintendent Anne Kirkpatrick, who referred to them as national heroes.
