President Biden and the first lady are scheduled to head to New Orleans on Monday to honor the victims of the New Year’s Day attack, as the community there mourns the loss of at least 14 people. 

A driver intentionally slammed a truck early New Year’s Day into a crowd of people celebrating the new year on Bourbon Street, killing at least 14 and injuring many more, authorities said. The attacker is dead, and FBI Deputy Assistant Director Christopher Raia said the attack was an act of terrorism. The FBI has identified the man responsible as Shamsud-Din Jabbar, a 42-year-old U.S.-born citizen from Texas and Army veteran who had posted several videos proclaiming his support for ISIS.

“My heart goes out to the victims and their families who were simply trying to celebrate the holiday,” Mr. Biden said soon after the attack. “There is no justification for violence of any kind, and we will not tolerate any attack on any of our nation’s communities.”
