New Orleans New Year attack: 15 dead as driver with ISIS flag rams crowd

Hindustan Times  

A US citizen with an Islamic State flag and "hellbent" on carnage steered a pickup truck into a crowd of New Year revelers in New Orleans on Wednesday, killing at least 15 people and wounding dozens, officials said. Police Superintendent Anne Kirkpatrick 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. "The FBI is working to determine the subject's potential associations and affiliations with terrorist organizations," the agency said in a statement. Officials said a manhunt was underway, with FBI agent Alethea Duncan warning that authorities "do not believe that Jabbar was solely responsible."
