PASADENA, Texas — The suspect identified in the deadly New Orleans truck attack was a current Houston resident according to multiple public records.

According to the FBI, 42-year-old Shamsud Din Jabbar was driving a Ford pickup when it plowed through Bourbon Street, killing at least 10 and injuring dozens more. The truck appears to have been rented.

• Jabbar, of Houston, was identified as the driver responsible for the attack
• Three men and a woman were seen placing an IED near the attack
• The truck used was rented from someone in Pasadena, Texas
• The FBI has classified the attack as terrorism
• The FBI is also investigating any ties to terrorist organizations

According to public records, his most recent address is listed as being in north Harris County.

The FBI in Houston released the following statement Wednesday afternoon saying that their agents and the Harris County Sheriff’s Office are at a home in north Harris County:

“FBI Houston and the Harris County Sheriff’s Office are currently conducting law enforcement activity near the intersection of Hugh Road and Crescent Peak Drive in north Houston. We have secured a perimeter in that area and are asking people to avoid the area. FBI Houston personnel and specialized teams will be on-site for several hours. This activity is related to this morning’s New Orleans attack, but due to the ongoing nature of the investigation, no further information can be provided.”

Duncan said Jabbar was an Army veteran, who they believe was honorably discharged – but was working to confirm that.

KHOU 11’s sister station in Beaumont, KBMT, reports that Jabbar graduated from Central High School in 2001. This is according to a Beaumont Independent School District spokesperson.

KBMT also confirmed that an individual with the same name was previously arrested in Beaumont. However, they have not been able to confirm that it is the same individual. 

The FBI said an ISIS flag was located in the vehicle used in the attack and they are working to determine the suspect’s potential associations and affiliations with terrorist organizations.

Weapons and a potential IED were located in his vehicle as well. Other potential IEDs were located in the French Quarter.

According to a Louisiana State Police intelligence bulletin, the pipe bombs were concealed within coolers. Both devices were wired for remote detonation, and a corresponding remote control was discovered inside the suspect’s truck.

“We do not believe that Jabbar was solely responsible,” Alethea Duncan, an assistant special agent in charge of the FBI’s New Orleans field office, said at a news conference.

The Associated Press reported that investigators have reviewed video showing three men and a woman placing an improvised explosive device in connection with the attack.

A man connected to the truck used in the deadly attack on Bourbon Street has confirmed that the vehicle had been rented via an app.

The truck used in the early morning attack had a Texas license plate. A man who would not identify himself at the Pasadena address connected to the license plate did not answer questions when approached by KHOU 11 News. He only confirmed that the vehicle had been rented out.

The AP reported that the pickup truck used in the attack was rented via Turo. Turo is an app that connects drivers, known as “guests,” with vehicle owners, known as “hosts,” according to Steve Webb, the company’s vice president of communications.

“We are heartbroken to learn that one of our host’s vehicles was involved in this awful incident,” Webb said in an email. “We are actively partnering with the FBI. We are not currently aware of anything in this guest’s background that would have identified him as a trust and safety threat to us at the time of the reservation.”

According to the FBI, the attack is being investigated as terrorism. At least 10 people are dead and dozens more are injured.

Jabbar was killed by police after executing a multi-staged attack on Bourbon Street early on New Year’s Day. He drove a pickup truck into crowds at 3:15 a.m., shot two responding officers, and was fatally wounded in the ensuing gunfight, police say.

NOPD Superintendent Anne Kirkpatrick described the attack as “a deliberate attempt to harm as many people as possible.”

The FBI has taken the lead on the investigation, classifying it as terrorism. The attack resulted in 10 fatalities and 35 injuries as of 10:30 a.m. Wednesday.
