The Times

After crashing the vehicle, Jabbar exited and opened fire on police officers, injuring two, before being fatally shot by law enforcement. An ISIS flag was found inside the truck, along with multiple improvised explosive devices (IEDs) in the vehicle and other areas of the French Quarter. The FBI is treating the incident as an act of terrorism and is investigating potential accomplices, as evidence suggests Jabbar may not have acted alone.

People

Jabbar, who had a history of minor criminal offenses and had recently converted to Islam, rented the truck through a car-sharing app. Authorities are probing his possible connections to ISIS and other individuals. In response to the attack, a state of emergency has been declared in Louisiana, and significant events, including a major college football game, have been postponed.

On January 1, 2025, at approximately 3:15 a.m., Shamsud-Din Jabbar, a 42-year-old U.S. Army veteran from Texas, drove a rented pickup truck into a crowd on Bourbon Street in New Orleans' French Quarter during New Year's celebrations. The attack resulted in at least 15 fatalities and numerous injuries.

After crashing the vehicle, Jabbar exited and opened fire on police officers, injuring two, before being fatally shot by law enforcement. An ISIS flag was found inside the truck, along with multiple improvised explosive devices (IEDs) in the vehicle and other areas of the French Quarter. The FBI is treating the incident as an act of terrorism and is investigating potential accomplices, as evidence suggests Jabbar may not have acted alone.
