The suspect in the New Orleans New Year’s Day terrorist attack failed to detonate two improvised explosive devices he had planted along the city’s famed French Quarter prior to ramming his truck into a crowd, killing 14 people and injuring many others, the FBI said Sunday. The suspect, 42-year-old U.S. Army veteran Samsud-Din Jabbar, was shot dead by police after he drove a rented pickup truck through a crowd of New Year’s revelers on New Orleans’ famed Bourbon Street early Wednesday. |
