Terror attack: Biden to visit New Orleans Monday

The White House on Friday announced that
US President, Joe Biden, will visit New Orleans next week to meet the families of victims of a deadly truck-ramming attack that killed 14 people.

A statement released by the White House said the President and his wife, Jill, will on Monday grieve with the families and community members impacted by the tragic attack on January 1 and meet with officials on the ground.

DAILY POST recalls that the southern city was sent into a panic on New Year’s Day when a US army veteran, who the FBI says pledged loyalty to the Islamic State jihadist group, used a pickup truck to kill and wound revelers in the crowded French Quarter entertainment district.

The bloodshed only ended when the suspect was killed by police in an exchange of gunfire.

Authorities said he also planted two homemade bombs in the city, though they did not go off.

The New Orleans attack coincided with a high-profile incident in Las Vegas a few hours later where a Tesla Cybertruck blew up outside the Trump International Hotel.
