In Washington DC, President-elect Donald Trump has reignited the debate over immigration and crime following a tragic incident in New Orleans. During New Year's Eve celebrations, a car-ramming attack left at least 10 people dead and 35 others injured. Trump criticized Democrats for ignoring his warnings about criminal migration into the US.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump stated, "When I said that the criminals coming in are far worse than the criminals we have in our country, that statement was constantly refuted by Democrats and the Fake News Media, but it turned out to be true. The crime rate in our country is at a level that nobody has ever seen before. Our hearts are with all of the innocent victims and their loved ones, including the brave officers of the New Orleans Police Department. The Trump Administration will fully support the City of New Orleans as they investigate and recover from this act of pure evil!"
The incident occurred on Bourbon Street in New Orleans' historic French Quarter, where crowds had gathered for New Year's Eve celebrations, including an open-air concert and special restaurant deals. Many attendees were college football fans in town for the Allstate Sugar Bowl, an annual game featuring the University of Georgia and Notre Dame.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is leading the investigation and has described the incident as "an act of terrorism." The FBI confirmed that the attacker was killed after engaging with local law enforcement.
US President Joe Biden expressed his condolences, stating, "My heart goes out to the victims and their families who were simply trying to celebrate the holiday. There is no justification for violence of any kind, and we will not tolerate any attack on any of our nation's communities."
