The FBI has confirmed that Shamsud-Din Jabbar, responsible for the New Orleans truck attack on New Year’s Day, visited the city at least twice ahead of the attack.
Additionally, the FBI released footage Jabbar recorded during a bike ride through the French Quarter using Meta smart glasses. See the footage here. Jabbar also wore the Meta glasses during the attack; however, they were not recording, officials said.
Also this weekend, U.S. military bases across the country heightened base security, including suspending the Pentagon’s “Trusted Traveler Program” and requiring a full ID check at all entry points.
