'Premeditated Evil Act': ISIS Terrorist in New Orleans Acted Alone, but FBI Has a Warning
The FBI has determined that the recent car-ramming attack in New Orleans was an act of terrorism, and the perpetrator was affiliated with ISIS. Meanwhile, additional information has emerged regarding the Tesla truck bombing outside the Trump Hotel in Las Vegas.
In the early hours of the New Orleans investigation, the FBI said the New Year's attack there was not terrorism. Now, it's issuing a strong statement on Shamsud-din Jabbar's motive, announcing he intentionally killed and injured as many people as he could because of his ties to ISIS.

"First and foremost, let me be very clear about this point. This was an act of terrorism. It was premeditated and an evil act," said FBI Deputy Assistant Director Christopher Raia.Now, after viewing hundreds of surveillance videos and conducting interviews, the FBI determined Jabbar acted alone. Still, the FBI is alerting law enforcement across the nation to be on guard. It's warning of potential copycats who might try to carry out attacks similar to the New Year's Day rampage.
