Federal law enforcement are searching for additional suspects after a truck drove through a New Orleans crowd early on New Year’s Day, killing at least 10 and injuring dozens more.
The brazen attack is being investigated as an act of terrorism by the FBI. It forced the delay of a college football game and is drawing attention to security concerns in New Orleans, which is set to host the Super Bowl this year in a few weeks’ time.
At approximately 3:15 a.m. local time, a pickup truck plowed through New Year’s revellers along Bourbon and Canal streets in New Orleans’ popular French Quarter. Some 35 people were left injured, some critically.
The driver then exited the vehicle and exchanged gunfire with police, who shot and killed the suspect. Two officers also sustained injuries but are in stable condition, according to Anne Kirkpatrick, superintendent of the New Orleans Police Department (NOPD).
