Yeah. So at this point, investigators say that the driver crashed through police barricades. Officers opened fire. The driver fired back. Two officers were injured before the driver was shot and killed. The FBI has called it an act of terrorism by an American citizen. And we know that he had an ISIS flag on his truck. Here's President Biden talking about it last night.

Investigators say that they believe the suspect, Shamsuddin Jabbar, may not have acted alone as well. Biden said law enforcement is looking for possible co-conspirators or associations and officials are urging people who might know anything to come forward. While at this point, Bourbon Street and most of the French Quarter remains off limits.

Yeah, so there were automatic bollards installed on Bourbon Street more than a decade ago. And so these are these barriers that go up and down automatically to block off the streets. But they haven't worked in quite some time. So instead, what New Orleans police did was they parked police cruisers at the intersection to prevent traffic from getting in.

But the suspect simply drove around the police cruiser. He went up onto the sidewalk and then began speeding down the road and started running into people in the crowded streets. Mm-hmm. The city was actually in the process of getting those bollards fixed ahead of the big Super Bowl that's set to be held here. But that process, obviously, it wasn't complete.

Yeah, yeah, it's a somber mood. I think there's also some anger that this happened. The witnesses described a chaotic, tragic scene with people out celebrating New Year's Eve that were suddenly plunged into panic and devastation. Like I mentioned, there's also the Sugar Bowl. It's a really big deal.
