LIVE: 10 Killed in New Orleans After Driver ‘Intentionally’ Rams into Crowd on Bourbon Street | Bourbon Street in New Orleans | USA Today | CNBC TV18
Sugar Bowl CEO Jeff Hundley announced Wednesday’s game will be postponed to Thursday in wake of the fatal New Year’s attack in New Orleans. “It’s in the best interests of everybody and public safety that we postpone the game for 24 hours,” Hundley said at a news conference.
At least 10 people were killed and 35 injured when a driver rammed a pickup truck into a crowd during New Year’s celebrations on Bourbon Street in New Orleans early on Wednesday morning. The FBI is investigating it as an “act of terrorism.”
The FBI has identified the suspect as a 42-year-old Texas man. According to a statement, other potential explosive devices were found in the area. Law enforcement sources say the suspect, who was killed in a firefight with officers, had an ISIS flag at the time of the attack.
The driver’s actions were “very intentional,” said police Superintendent Anne Kirkpatrick. “This man was trying to run over as many people as he possibly could.” The man also shot at police officers, hitting two, who are in stable condition, Kirkpatrick said
