FBI: There is “no definitive link” between Las Vegas attack and New Orleans attack
-Both attacks involved vehicles
-Attacks happened within hours of each other
-Both vehicles rented through Turo
-Both suspects served in U.S. Army at the same base
FBI Deputy Assistant Director Christopher Raia insists “this was an act of terrorism,” a “premeditated and an evil act” by the suspect whom law enforcement now believes “do not assess at this point that anyone else involved in this attack is involved in this attack”
FBI Deputy Assistant Director Christopher Raia addressed the media.
First and foremost, let me be very clear about this point: this was an act of terrorism. It was premeditated and an evil act. This was obviously a critical incident, and with that, lots of information and tips come pouring in from law enforcement, first responders, and the public.
We have been aggressively running down these tips and information. As you all know, that takes time, and we will continue to do so until every lead has been followed through on. This investigation is only a little more than 24 hours old, so I ask you to keep that in mind as I go through some of the specifics later.
But at this point, and this is another fact I want to be clear on, we do not assess that anyone else is involved in this attack except for Shamsud-Din Jabbar, the subject you’ve already been briefed on. A little bit about what the FBI is doing: we are surging people and assets to the area from across the region and across the nation. Special agents in multiple field offices across the country have been deployed and are assisting with potential aspects of this investigation and following up on every lead.
Additional teams of special agents, professional staff, and victim specialists continue to arrive to provide more investigative power and assistance to the victims and their families.
