A tragic incident occurred in the early hours of New Year’s Day in New Orleans, Louisiana, where a man drove a Ford pick-up truck into crowds, resulting in ten fatalities and at least 35 injuries. The attacker, identified as 42-year-old Shamsud-Din Jabbar, was armed and fired upon law enforcement before being killed. Authorities are investigating potential terrorist affiliations, as a flag linked to the Islamic State was found in Jabbar’s vehicle. Victims included locals and university students, as the attacks unfolded during New Year celebrations.
