Investigation Underway After Deadly Truck Attack in New Orleans
A U.S. Army veteran, Shamsud-Din Jabbar, drove a truck flying an Islamic State flag into a crowd celebrating New Year’s Eve in New Orleans, killing 15 and injuring 30. The FBI is investigating potential accomplices and links to a separate incident involving an exploding Tesla outside Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas. President Joe Biden condemned the attack, calling it ‘despicable’, while local residents expressed shock and demanded increased security measures ahead of major upcoming events.
