A driver killed 10 people and injured dozens more after plowing a pickup truck donning an ISIS flag into a crowd of people celebrating the New Year on Bourbon Street in New Orleans, just days after a pro-ISIS outlet called on Muslims to wage Islamic jihad in the U.S., Europe and Russia.

The tragic event happened at about 3:15 a.m. on New Year’s Day and the FBI identified the driver as 42-year-old Shamsud Din Jabbar of Texas.

Police said the suspect died after jumping out of his truck and trading gunfire with responding officers.

The FBI told reporters on Wednesday that an ISIS flag was located on the trailer hitch of the vehicle, adding that the FBI is working to determine Din Jabbar’s potential associations and affiliation to the terrorist organization.

NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA – JANUARY 1: Law enforcement officers from multiple agencies work the scene on Bourbon Street after at least ten people were killed when a person allegedly drove into the crowd in the early morning hours of New Year’s Day on January 1, 2025 in New Orleans, Louisiana. Dozens more were injured after a suspect in a rented pickup truck allegedly drove around barricades and through a crowd of New Year’s revelers on Bourbon Street.

“The time has come to take out the swords from their sheaths and to hamstring the horses in their places that Allah loves and is pleased with,” the post continued. “They are preparing for the feast of their polytheism, so turn their feast into mourning and their joy into a calamity.”

The outlet asked Muslims, or “Crusaders,” if they felt safe in their homes as their brothers and sisters were in detention centers and camps, before calling on them to “repeat the attack on them and repeat the days of those who preceded you on this path.”

“So, lie in wait for them, lie in wait, and seize opportunities and attack them like a hungry lion attacks its heedless prey,” the message read. “Let none of you be cowardly or weak, and let the saying of Allah be before your eyes: Come and fight the polytheists all together as they fight you all together, so put your trust in God and repeat the days of terror against the Crusaders with killing, spite and torture, for the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: ‘An unbeliever and his killer will never meet in the Fire, so support God and He will support you, and be honest with Him.’”

The attack in New Orleans comes nearly two weeks after a suspected terror attack on a Christmas market in Germany.

A psychiatrist from Saudi Arabia was reportedly arrested in connection to the Dec. 20 car-ramming at a crowded Christmas market in Magdeburg, Germany, that killed five people, including a nine-year-old boy, and injured over 200 others.
