Man Who Drove Car Into New Orleans Crowd 'Hell Bent' On 'Carnage': Officials
HuffPost
The suspect died after driving down Bourbon Street and firing on officers in the early hours of New Year's Day.
The man who drove a vehicle onto a crowded Bourbon Street fired at police officers after killing 10 and injuring dozens of others, police said Wednesday.
Anne Kirkpatrick, the New Orleans superintendent of police, said the suspect “was hell bent on creating the carnage and the damage that he did.”
The suspect died after exchanging gunfire with officers, according to the FBI.
The incident happened about 3:15 a.m. CT, as New Year celebrations were winding down and hours before the Sugar Bowl college football game, which tens of thousands are expected to attend at the Superdome. Kirkpatrick said the suspect drove “at a very fast pace” and fired at law enforcement officials after crashing his vehicle.
“It was very intentional behavior,” Kirkpatrick said, noting it was “not a DUI situation.” She also noted the FBI is taking over the investigation.
