Lone Wolf Terror: New Orleans Rampage Sparks National Outcry
In New Orleans, Shamsud-Din Jabbar drove a truck into a crowd, killing 15 people in a terror act inspired by the Islamic State. Despite initial beliefs of more suspects, the FBI confirmed he acted alone. The city, recovering, plans upcoming major events as investigations continue.

The deadly truck rampage on New Year's Eve in New Orleans was solely the work of Shamsud-Din Jabbar, the FBI confirmed. Initially suspected of collaboration, Jabbar's ties to the Islamic State have been established, though no additional arrests have been made, authorities said on Thursday.
The city renowned for its vibrant Bourbon Street has faced a terror-fueled attack, leaving 15 dead and dozens injured. Authorities disclosed that Jabbar, a US Army veteran, bypassed police blockades with a truck, targeting revellers inspired by extremist motives, a black flag of the Islamic State found in his possession.
While New Orleans organizes its traditional events like the Sugar Bowl and Super Bowl amid heightened security, officials and residents grapple with questions about existing protocols, as federal agencies continue to probe Jabbar's possible affiliations with terrorist groups.
