At least 10 people were killed and as many as 35 injured after a truck drove into a large crowd on Bourbon Street in 🇺🇸 New Orleans' French Quarter early on Wednesday during a New Year's celebration, according to the FBI and city leaders.

The pick-up truck crashed into the crowd at high speed around 3:15 a.m. and within moments the driver started firing on police officers from inside the vehicle, New Orleans Police Department Superintendent Anne Kirkpatrick said at an early morning news conference. Two officers were shot and are now being treated in stable condition.

CNN and ABC News, citing unnamed officials, said the gunman was killed at the scene.

New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell told reporters that the driver was on a mission to kill as many people as possible. "He was hell bent on creating the carnage and the damage that he did . . . This man was trying to run over as many people as he possibly could. It was not a DUI situation," Cantrell said. Two police officers were shot but are in stable condition.

Hundreds of police officers were in the city for New Year's Eve duty when the assault happened, Cantrell said. The driver of the truck swerved around barricades on his way into the crowd, she said.

“Last night, we had over 300 officers out here, and because of the intentional mindset of this perpetrator who went around our barricades in order to conduct this," the mayor said.

The FBI has taken over the investigation. Alethea Duncan, assistant special agent in charge of the FBI's New Orleans office, said later in the press conference that the incident is not being considered a terrorist attack.

“This is not a terrorist event,” Duncan said, adding that “an improvised explosive device was found” and the FBI is working to determine whether “it’s a viable device or not.”

If the man was a Muslim, he would have been labeled a Muslim terrorist and the incident would have been called a terrorist attack.

However, since he is not a Muslim, he would be termed mentally unbalanced.

Exactly. I have been watching CNN and Fox, they are both dancing around what to call the criminal.
That should already tell you that the criminal is one Christian White guy hence he's not a terrorist just a " deranged, mentally challenged good Christian".

Only one person on CNN is telling the truth, terrorist is anyone who employs terror to achieve their objective.
This criminal is a TERRORIST.

America is the GREATEST Banana Republic of them all.

This is a CALCULATED attempt to murder as MANY people as possible which resulted in the DEATH of 10 people and the MAIMING of 35 more.

YET the FBI is saying it's NOT a terrorism attack.

Meanwhile, Luigi Mangione allegedly shot ONE person without injuring anybody else or shooting at Police Officers and they are charging him with TERRORISM.

Banana Republic!

Not only Muslims get brainwashed with Muhammad jihadist madness

Do you know that if you kill "infidel"s for Allah, you will be rewarded in Aljanat with 72 virgins,
This alone can create legion of mad men

what a religion
