A car may have plowed into a crowd on Bourbon Street early on Wednesday, the New Orleans Police Department reported, according to ABC News affiliate WGNO.
So he got away from the police, and the FBI says they don’t consider it a terrorist thing. Which means he is white. And he probably ran his car into PoC.
There were initial reports that he got away. But it looks like he didn’t now, and even the FBI upgraded him to “Terrorist”. In contrast to some guy currently in a New York prison, I would say that this label does apply.

“He was shot and killed by police when he got out of his vehicle with an assault rifle, the officials said.”
Doesn’t sound like he got away.

And that’s why we shouldn’t go crazy with wild speculation when all we have is “initial reports” and little other verifiable information.
Maybe we learned a lesson about trusting initial reports for a hot take.
Yep, that is the current state of information. Which differs from the state of information when I wrote my piece.
