At least one person has been killed after a driver rammed their vehicle into a large crowd on the famed Bourbon Street in New Orleans — hours after the city rang in the New Year, according to reports.

The mass causality incident occurred at the intersection of Bourbon Street and Iberville in the city’s French Quarter neighborhood at around 3:15 a.m., WGNO reported.

The New Orleans Police Department confirmed at least one death, according to the outlet.
