The FBI Discovers Explosive Devices at Site of Fatal New Orleans Incident
The FBI has uncovered explosive devices at the scene of a tragic incident in New Orleans, where a driver rammed a pickup truck into a large crowd on Bourbon Street early New Year’s Day. The bureau’s spokesperson confirmed the discovery during a live interview on Fox News, escalating concerns about the nature of the attack.
The incident, which occurred around 3:15 a.m. at the intersection of Bourbon Street and Iberville in the French Quarter, resulted in at least 10 fatalities and 30 injuries. The driver, who was stopped after police opened fire, is now suspected of possibly planning a larger attack, given the presence of the explosive devices.
Authorities are investigating whether the explosives were intended for use during the incident or if they were part of a broader plan. Federal and local agencies are working together to secure the area, analyze the devices, and identify any potential accomplices, as the city grapples with the aftermath of this devastating event.
