New Orleans officers recovering after 'heroic' response to New Year's terrorist attack: attorney

NEW ORLEANS – The two New Orleans Police Department officers injured in the Jan. 1 terrorist attack on Bourbon Street that left 15 dead, including attacker Shamsud-Din Jabbar, are recovering after they heroically neutralized the ISIS-motivated perpetrator, according to their attorney.

NOPD officers fatally shot Jabbar after he drove an electric Ford F-150 pickup truck through a New Year's crowd around 3:15 a.m. on Jan. 1, killing 14 civilians and opening fire on police in an act of terror motivated by Islamic extremism.
