The FBI has revealed new and shocking details about the deadly truck ramming incident that took place on January 1, 2025, in New Orleans, which left at least 10 people dead and dozens injured.
Authorities confirmed the discovery of a suspected improvised explosive device (IED) at the scene, although Special Agent Alethea Duncan stated that it is still being investigated to confirm its viability.
While Mayor LaToya Cantrell initially called the incident a terrorist attack, the FBI quickly contradicted this, insisting that the attack is not classified as terrorism.
The suspect, who engaged in a firefight with police, was later found dead.
The investigation remains ongoing as authorities work to understand the full scope of the tragedy, with law enforcement urging the public to stay clear of the affected area.
