"The suspect is accused of inciting Shamsud-Din Jabbar, 42, to carry out the attack, which also left dozens injured on the famed New Orleans street at the height of New Year's Eve celebrations."
"Jabbar, a Muslim and US Army veteran, was believed to have been radicalized by ISIS before he rammed a rented Ford F-150 Lightning truck through the crowded street and fired an assault rifle at revelers."
An Iraqi official reported the arrest of a suspect linked to the January 1 Bourbon Street car attack in New Orleans, which resulted in 14 deaths. The suspect, thought to be part of ISIS's external operations, allegedly inspired Shamsud-Din Jabbar, a US Army veteran, to commit the act of violence during the New Year celebrations. Jabbar, believed to be radicalized, carried out the attack by ramming a truck into crowds and firing an assault rifle, ultimately being killed by police shortly after.
