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.
I don’t know how the roads were not blocked. After a similar attack many years ago, all streets with events I have been to are blocked with garbage trucks, police cars or huge concrete blocks to prevent attacks like this.
Edit: read that there was a police car blockade and the he drove around it on the side walk.
I was in NYC a couple weeks ago, and Rockerfeller was closed to traffic and PACKED. What was holding back traffic? A couple cops holding police tape, lmao.
To be fair this was likely inspired from the German Christmas market attack. Though… they don’t have the best track record as a country either.

Wow, even my pissant Midwest town has proper anti-vehicle roadblocks that they roll out for any parade or event
I was referring to Times Square for New Years. Surprised it isn’t the same in other places.
