Shamsud-Din Jabbar, the Texas man who drove a truck through a crowd of New Year’s revelers in New Orleans, visited the city twice in the months leading up to the attack, using Meta smart glasses to record a video as he traveled the length of Bourbon Street, the later site of his attack.
Following the October and November trips to New Orleans, Jabbar returned to the city ahead of New Year’s celebrations and carried out the attack, which killed 14 people and injured scores of others. Jabbar was shot and killled by police in the aftermath.
Investigators recovered the glasses from Jabbar’s body at the scene and don’t believe he enabled their live-streaming capacity during the truck massacre.
