the horrific incident that occurred

there overnight
4:00
the FBI is taking the lead in the
4:02
investigation and is investigating this
4:05
incident as an act of terrorism I am
4:08
grateful for the Brave and Swift
4:10
response of local law enforcement in
4:12
preventing even greater death and injury
4:16
I have directed my team to ensure every
4:18
resource is available as federal state
4:22
and local law enforcement work
4:24
assiduously to get to the bottom of what
4:27
happened as quickly as possible and to
4:29
ensure that there is no remaining threat
4:31
of any kind I will continue to receive
4:34
updates throughout the day and I will
4:37
have more to say as we have further
4:39
information to share in the meantime my
4:42
heart goes out to the victims and their
4:44
families who were simply trying to
4:46
celebrate the holiday there is no
4:49
justification for violence of any kind
4:52
and we will not tolerate any attack on
4:54
any of our nation's communities Joe
4:57
Biden had stated May while in a formal
5:01
statement the FBI has called on internet
5:04
slits particularly ex users to please
5:07
stop solving crimes before they have a
5:09
chance to do so the FBI statement comes
5:13
some hours after ex users allegedly
5:16
discovered all suspects and motives
5:18
related to the recent Terror attacks in
5:20
New Orleans and Las vgas the statement
5:23
reades in part does it is in the public
5:26
interest that all EX users stop solving
5:28
crimes immediately medely soling crime
5:31
is the responsibility of the federal
5:33
government and local law enforcement if
5:37
we do not solve crimes first we cannot
5:39
control the narrative and that's
5:42
important for national security reasons
5:44
we cannot discuss at this time you're
5:47
going to put us all out of a job said
5:50
FBI director Christopher Ray commenting
5:53
on the public statement we're supposed
5:56
to be the ones solving crimes please
5:59
stop them demonstrating how useless we
6:01
are as an incentive the FBI is promising
6:05
not to R anyone who complies all you
6:08
have to do is not report on suspects
6:11
observe obvious connections to other
6:13
crimes or complain when we prosecute
6:16
parents of schoolage children a
6:18
spokesman for the buau explained you
6:21
scratch our back we leave your back
6:24
alone get it FBI had prosecuted an ex
6:28
user for interfering with with a cover
6:30
up the FBI said last week Thursday that
6:33
it now believed the suspect acted alone
6:36
in an act of terrorism in the truck
6:39
attack in New Orleans on New Year's Day
6:41
that killed 14 and injured dozens more
6:43
when a man drove a rented Peck up into a
6:46
crowd celebrating on Busy Bone Street
6:49
the chief suspect the 42-year-old US
6:53
citizen shamin Jabar was killed as he
6:56
shot at police and officers returned
6:58
fire bringing the total deaths from the
7:00
incident to 15 with estimated 35 others
7:04
injured the FBI also announced that it
7:07
had found no definitive link between the
7:10
new orans attack and the explosion that
7:12
occurred later on Wednesday of a Tesla
7:14
cyber truck outside a hotel owned by
7:16
Donald Trump in Las Vegas which resulted
7:19
in the death of the driver over the past
7:22
24 hours there had been contradictory
7:24
reports on whether the suspect in New
7:26
Orleans had Associates with the planning
7:28
or execution of the attack while the
7:31
authorities also had said they were
7:33
looking into possible connections
7:34
between the New Orleans and the lasas
7:37
incident before updating the public on
7:39
Thursday on both fronts Christopher Rea
7:43
Deputy assistant director of the FBI's
7:46
counterterrorism division said that the
7:48
evidence had now shown shuin Jabba was
7:51
solely responsible for the New Orleans
7:53
attack and had professed his allegiance
7:55
to Islamic State this was an act of
7:59
terroris him it was premeditated and an
8:01
evil act he was 100% inspired by ISIS
8:06
Rea said adding we know that he
8:09
specifically picked out Bon Street not
8:12
sure why the FBI also revealed that
8:15
Jabba posted five videos on his Facebook
8:18
account in the hours before the attack
8:20
in which he proclaimed his support for
8:22
the islamist militant group while also
8:24
previewing the violence that he would
8:26
soon unleash in the city's F French
8:28
Quarter the videos included one in which
8:31
he said he originally planned to have
8:34
his family and friends but was concerned
8:36
that news headlights would not focus on
8:38
the war between the Believers and the
8:42
disbelievers Reya said he also left a
8:45
last will and testament the FBI said
8:49
earlier senior FBI fig and the Attorney
8:52
General of LZ has said the believed
8:55
known associates and multiple people
8:58
were probably
9:00
involved Jabba from Houston Texas drove
9:04
a rented white pickup truck between the
9:07
100 and 400 blocks of Bon Street
9:10
crashing into riers and mowing many down
9:13
then shooting from the truck hitting two
9:16
police officers before he was killed
9:19
Jabar who served in the US Army for 13
9:22
years was wearing body armor and a
9:24
helmet according to a law enforcement
9:27
bulletin and was displayed an Islamic
9:30
State Flag mounted on a pipe in the bed
9:32
of the vehicle the FBI is investigating
9:36
the attack as an act of terrorism Abdul
9:40
Rahim jabah jaar's younger brother told
9:43
the associated prce on Thursday that it
9:46
doesn't feel real that his brother could
9:49
have done this I never would have
9:51
thought it had be him he said it's
9:54
completely unlike him he said that his
9:57
brother had been isolated in the last
9:59
few years but that he had also been in
10:02
touch with him and he did not see any
10:04
signs of
10:05
radicalization it's completely
10:07
contradictory to who he was and how his
10:10
family and his friends know him he said
10:13
accordingly investigators found guns and
10:16
what appeared to be improvised explosive
10:19
devices in the vehicle Louisiana's
10:22
attorney general Li Maru said the
10:25
explosive devices associated with the
10:27
attack appear to have been man
10:29
manufactured at an ABNB in new orence
10:31
that she said was rented out for that
10:34
purpose in addition Mario said a house
10:38
fire occurred on Wednesday morning that
10:41
was connected to this event where we
10:43
believe the IEDs were being made a New
10:46
Orleans Emergency Management Saw s
10:49
firefighters who put out that
10:50
intentionally s blaz spotted a gasoline
10:53
can a drill and some type of adhesive
10:57
material that Discovery prompted them to
10:59
call police who determined the materials
11:02
in the home were meant to make bombs
11:04
connected to the attack on bone Street
11:07
on Thursday morning the New Orleans
11:10
Police Superintendent and K Patrick said
11:13
on NBC's today that authorities were
11:16
investigating people of Interest related
11:19
to the attack we have people of Interest
11:22
they are not people who are suspects at
11:25
this time K Patrick said adding the FBI
11:29
is tracking down everybody the vehicles
11:32
involved in the attacks in New Orleans
11:34
and Las vgas were rented using the car
11:37
sharing aburu and the suspects in both
11:40
incidents who were both killed had been
11:43
or were in the military leading to
11:45
questions being asked including by Joe
11:48
Biden about whether the events were
11:51
connected that link was scotched by
11:53
authorities later on Thursday a
11:56
spokesperson for turo said the company
11:58
was cooperating with police the company
12:01
also said that we do not believe that
12:03
either renter had a criminal background
12:06
that would have identified them as a
12:08
security threat according to
