Fourteen people were killed and dozens were injured after a pickup truck was driven into a crowd of New Year’s revelers in New Orleans on Wednesday morning.
The FBI has identified US Army veteran Shamsud-Din Jabbar, 42, as the suspect in the attack, which has been called a premeditated act of terrorism. Jabbar was killed in a firefight with police after the attack.
Jabbar had an ISIS flag in his vehicle, and he said in videos made before the attack that he had joined the terror group, authorities said.
As of Thursday afternoon, the names of the victims had not yet been released, but some have been identified by their relatives and people close to them.
Here are some of the stories that made headlines over the past week, as well as some photos that caught our eye.
