The suspect in the New Year's Day attack in New Orleans was identified as Shamsud Din Jabbar, a 42-year-old US citizen. He was driving a rented Ford pickup truck with an ISIS flag attached to it when he intentionally crashed into crowds, killing at least ten people. According to the FBI, Jabbar opened fire on police during a brief shootout, and a possible IED was found in his vehicle. The incident was described as a terrorist attack.
The FBI is working to determine the subject's potential associations and affiliations with terrorist organisations.
Bollards were not up because they are near completion.
I'm not going to say anything until I get all the facts in front of me.
There is no justification for violence of any kind, and we will not tolerate any attack on any of our nation's communities.
Our hearts are with the people of New Orleans after this despicable attack.
The law enforcement and intelligence community continue to look for any connections, associations, or coconspirators. We have nothing in addition to report at this time.
The Isis flag was found in his vehicle, which he rented to conduct this attack.
I have directed my team to ensure every resource is available as federal, state, and local law enforcement work assiduously to get to the bottom of what happened as quickly as possible and to ensure that there is no remaining threat of any kind.
My heart goes out to the victims and their families who were simply trying to celebrate the holiday.
The FBI also reported to me that mere hours before the attack, he posted videos on social media indicating that he was inspired by ISIS, especially a desire to kill.
We do not believe that Jabbar was solely responsible. We are aggressively running down every lead, including those of his known associates.
So we did indeed have a plan, but the terrorist defeated it.
We had barriers there. We had officers there, and they still got around.
This man, this perpetrator, he fired on our officers from his vehicle when he crashed his vehicle. Two of our officers have been shot. They are stable.
Biden's parting gift to America — migrant terrorists.
You can't prevent something like this when you've got a crazy person that is wanting to cause havoc and take lives.
The crime rate in our country is at a level that nobody has ever seen before. Our hearts are with all of the innocent victims and their loved ones, including the brave officers of the New Orleans Police Department. The Trump Administration will fully support the City of New Orleans as they investigate and recover from this act of pure evil!
