  • Shamsud-Din Jabbar, aged 42, is identified as the suspect in a fatal truck attack that resulted in 15 deaths and injuring dozens during a New Year’s celebration in New Orleans.
  • The FBI is investigating the incident as a potential act of terrorism due to the presence of an Islamic State flag on Jabbar’s vehicle.
