A U.S. Army veteran who drove a truck into a crowd of New Year's Day revelers in New Orleans, killing at least 14 people, acted alone and pledged allegiance to the Islamic State, the FBI said. Shamsud-Din Jabbar was shot dead after firing at police. Jabbar was a former soldier who served in Afghanistan. He posted videos online expressing support for IS before the attack. The FBI described the incident as an act of terrorism. New Orleans officials rescheduled the Sugar Bowl game, and authorities nationwide increased security following the attack.
