Officers exchanged gunfire with the attacker. Two officers injured (no details). Attacker not taken into custody.

 

Rumor of IEDs, no evidence they were used, rumor is they were present.

 

FBI is taking over investigation. At press conference, FBI representative stated this attack was not (?) terrorism.

Wow.  This is an example of why I don't like large crowds and big events on holidays.  They become targets for nut cases and terrorists.  I hope all of our UGA football players were safely under guard in their motel rooms.  My prayers for the victims and the New Orleans Police officers, who will bear a lot of overtime on this one.

Governor called it terrorism.

Mayor called it terrorism.

FBI ... I'll hold comment on the Bureau.

I'm with Badlands Bob.

No liking for such nut magnets!

Mayor said it's a terrorist attack, FBI says it's not! It's a terrorist attack to me whether it's foreign or domestic is the question.

Sad 😔 12 dead and 30 injured after a terrorist driver plowed his car and then got out and fired his weapon at the crowd celebrating new year in Bourbon Street, New Orleans.

Like guns, the news is calling the vehicle a car, the witness' are calling it a pick up truck. What a shame we can't even celebrate anymore:angry:. I stay clear of those sort of crowds nowadays.

I see you've had the same experience with the FBI as I have.  👎

If it wasn't done by a white man the FBI won't call it a terrorist attack.  I'm not seeing any description of the attacker, so we know he wasn't white.

This just goes to show we need to ban vehicles if it saves just one life.

More people are killed with vehicles than firearms so it is vital we just ban vehicles to save lives.

 

Same argument as gun laws.

FBI clarifies (reverses) and now says the event is being investigated as an act of terrorism.

 

Injured count upped to 35 with 10 dead.

 

Still not clear if the perpetrator was shot while trying to get out of his vehicle or if he did exit it before engaging officers in gunfire.

 

One report stating perpetrator was wearing a helmet and body armor. Not confirmed.

 

Also not confirmed, as many as 10 people may have been struck by gunfire.

 

Next news conference looks to be at 11 AM EST, 10 CST.

Why release it? 

 

That's exactly what these assholes want.

"The suspect in the New Orleans vehicle ramming attack is Shamsud Din Jabbar, multiple law enforcement sources told ABC News.

Authorities are working to determine whether he had any affiliation with ISIS."

 

Obviously Welsh Separatist connection.

FBI says they believe the New Orleans purp did NOT act alone! Explosives found in the vehicle. Suspect jumped out of vehicle shooting at police! They return fire and "neutralized" the suspect! Report some sort of flag related to ISIS was on a pole sticking up from the back of the vehicle! :o

 

In addition a vehicle exploded in front of Trump Las Vegas Hotel! Reportedly, one person inside the vehicle died! This, too, being investigated as a possible act of terror! Whiskey Tango Foxtrot???   Sugar Bowl game postponed! :wacko:

"An official briefed on the probe told ABC News that the Tesla Cybertruck had a load of fireworks-style mortars onboard. Investigators are urgently working to determine a motive and whether the driver intended to set off an explosion and why."

Three men and a woman recorded on cameras placing IEDs in the French Quarter in advance of the attack. Not known if one was the driver/shooter, so 3 to 4 accomplices. I think the number 5 was mentioned in the press conference, but clearly not a lone wolf attack.

Born in the US, claimed 10 years military service. Gov is not yet confirming honorable discharge. The 10 year claim was in a video by the shooter from 4 years ago when he was trying to build business as a realtor. He was clean-cut in the video and (side note) wearing a wedding ring, not fully-bearded like in his DRT picture.

I still have not sorted that one, reports for the German market is the attacker held anti Islamic views... So why attack a Christmas market?

I just hope that they can find and capture his accomplices alive so that they can "extract" all information about support for this attack. I really don't care how they "extract" this information.

I do care, but only because I hold principles and rights above my personal feelings. However... would also look at state and federal law to see if the accomplices are guilty not only of all the carnage of innocents already perpetrated but also for the death of the driver/shooter. We have that law in Tennessee. If I have to justifiably shoot an attacker, his accomplice is guilty of and accountable for that death too.

Death toll is now at 15 and 30+ injured.   Cybertruck fire and explosion in front of the Trump Hotel in Las Vegas is also being investigated as a terrorism event.
