“We know that the city of New Orleans has been hit by a terrorist attack,” said LaToya Cantrell, the city’s mayor, this Wednesday, January 1, 2025 during a press conference. For its part, the FBI, however, considered that it was not a terrorist attack. Explosives were found in the man’s vehicle.
According to the authorities, he was determined to “cause carnage” and shot at the police. A few hours earlier, a car drove into a crowd causing the death of at least 10 people. Several dozen injured, at least thirty, are also to be deplored. They were distributed to different hospitals in the region, as indicated by the local police chief.
A federal investigation has been opened, as indicated by LaToya Cantrell. To facilitate the work of investigators and law enforcement, searches are asked not to approach the “eight city blocks” in the round.
