Videos Show How US Army Veteran Ran Through Crowd With Truck, Killing 15

Security camera footage has emerged of suspected terrorist Shamsud-Din Jabbar plowing his pickup truck down a packed Bourbon Street in New Orleans on New Year's Day. The attack killed at least 15 people and injured 35 others. Police described Jabbar as a "terrorist," while the FBI said "an ISIS flag was located in the vehicle," using another name for the Islamic State armed group.

Videos circulating on social media show Jabbar's white pickup truck with an ISIS flag inching through Canal Street traffic before taking a sharp turn down Bourbon Street.

Shamsud Din Jabbar was able to plow onto Bourbon Street from Canal Street in New Orleans, in his pickup truck with an ISIS flag, because the steel barriers weren't raised.

At least fifteen people were killed and dozens of others were injured after US Army veteran Jabbar swerved around makeshift barriers and barreled into revellers in New Orleans' crowded French Quarter on New Year's Day. Officials said they were searching for accomplices but gave few details.

US President Joe Biden, describing the attack as "despicable," said that hours before Jabbar had posted videos online "indicating that he was inspired by ISIS."

Officials said a manhunt was underway, with FBI agent Alethea Duncan warning that authorities "do not believe that Jabbar was solely responsible."

"We're hunting some bad people down," Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry said.

An FBI spokesman told AFP that 15 people had been killed, citing the New Orleans coroner's office.
