The FBI is investigating the New Orleans attack as an act of terrorism and strongly believes the suspect was not acting alone, raising concerns of broader involvement.
FBI Assistant Special Agent Althea Duncan emphasized the need for public assistance, urging anyone with interactions with suspect Jabbar in the last 72 hours to come forward.
Investigators confirmed the suspect, Shamsud Din Jabbar, was in possession of multiple improvised explosive devices and had allied connections, indicated by possession of an ISIS flag.
Local law enforcement and FBI bomb technicians are collaborating to assess and neutralize explosive devices found in Jabbar's vehicle and surrounding areas.
