Federal investigators believe a US Army veteran who drove a truck into a crowd of New Year's revelers in New Orleans' French Quarter prepared the IED explosives at a nearby rental property.
Shamsud-Din Jabbar, 42, a US citizen born and raised in Texas drove an electric vehicle from Houston to Louisiana to carry out the deadly attack which killed 15 and left at least 35 injured.
Investigators are probing the theory he rented a nearby property on Airbnb in St. Roch for his base before carrying out the attack.
Exclusive DailyMail.com photographs show the moment the FBI removed bomb making materials from the two-bedroom and two-bathroom property close to the French Quarter.
A total containment vessel was seen being taken away from the property at around 8pm on New Years Day, hours after authorities had evacuated residents from the area.
The area is mostly rentals available to tourists travelling to the area for the holiday period, who have now been left without a place to stay.
Authorities told one couple ‘not to count’ on being allowed back into the properties, blocking off a three-street radius.
The FBI were joined by special agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) and Homeland Security.

Typical useless “authorities” from our bureaucratic agencies. Maximum inconvenience to upstanding citizens, depriving them of FREEDOM in the name of “safety”, while utterly FAILING at their JOB which is to underwrite citizen safety and security by PREVENTING incidents such as this.
Burn those bureaucracies to the ground! Send their minions into enduring unemployment leading to deep deprivation. They are not merely dysfunctional, they are malevolent.
That got this way because of rapacious lawyers suing them over a loss with juries biased against police. "Safe" is when they are safe from getting sued. It's one of the reasons so many LEOs look at the law abiding public as a threat to them.
Think "Derek Chauvin."
>> Think “Derek Chauvin.”
Point taken. Although Minnesota is a special, evil case.
I lift up Derek Chauvin in prayer regularly. He is not a murderer, he is a victim of horrible injustice, as are his fellow officers called to duty that terrible day.
Unfortunately, cases like his work their way into officer training nationwide (why I cited it). That's why you see this kind of undue caution at everybody's expense.
>> That’s why you see this kind of undue caution at everybody’s expense.
I’m hopeful that that can change, after We The People become fed up with the canonization of criminals at the expense of those who defend us.
Meanwhile, I pray for those who suffer injustice due to misguided wokery
Maybe I just missed it, but I’m surprised I haven’t heard anyone mention the SuperBowl today. It will be in New Orleans February 9.
Ahhhh. So the US army Veteran is the primary label used to describe him, but NOT a muslim terrorist???
This is the leftists media setting the narrative that a vet lost his marbles, not that he and others are part of an islamic terror group/cell
They will focus on his military service and ignore the actual reason for the attack—to kill as many infidels as possible
Best post of the evening, IMHO...
BTTT
Would that be Ford’s F150 Lightning, an EV? It seems the muzzles don’t like EVs.
Yup. The soviets have raised spies in this country from childbirth.
I’d like to hear (eventually) from Kash and Tulsi on these terrorist incidents.
You saw that “immediate label change” too, eh?
Yeah sure, the journos may try that....but who’ll believe them?
Hey sweet thing. Long time no see!
Yeah, people are mentioning the Sugar Bowl, mostly in comments in threads. There is one thread talking about the postponement of the game by a day.
There’s a lot of terroristic acts in the leadup to Trump taking over. The FBI and NSA have full access to a LOT of information that could thwart a LOT of this stuff, Trump needs to repurpose those agencies from “Trying to get Trump” to “Protecting America from terrorism.”
I really doubt he is a soviet.
What ?
Dei Alethia Duncan from the Nola FBI stated yesterday .
There is No Terrorism involved here .
