Investigation of Violent Incidents in the U.S.
Police are examining a potential link between a violent attack carried out by Shamsuddin Jabbar in New Orleans and an explosion involving a Tesla cyber truck outside Trump Hotel in Las Vegas. Jabbar, who killed 14 people during his attack, was found to be influenced by ISIS, having previously posted distressing content online expressing a desire to commit violence. In the aftermath, the cyber truck explosion was attributed to fireworks and gas canisters inside the vehicle, and it was reported that the individual inside had shot himself before the explosion. President Biden confirmed that the FBI was looking into connections between these incidents, highlighting Jabbar's military background and his allegiance to ISIS.
