REVEALED: Shamsud-Din Jabbar told neighbors he was moving to New Orleans, taking nothing with him

Shamsud-Din Jabbar, the man who rammed an electric Ford truck into a crowd in New Orleans, claiming the lives of 15 and injuring dozens more, told his neighbors that he was moving to New Orleans as he was headed to the attack site.

According to a report from the New York Post, the terrorist lived in squalid conditions, but told neighbors that he was moving to a furnished apartment in New Orleans for a better job. Muntaz Bashir, who lives next to the old home, told the outlet he had offered to help him move as he was taking off from Texas the morning before.

Jabbar responded, telling him that he was leaving everything behind and had found a furnished place in New Orleans to live. When the neighbor saw the new electric truck that Jabbar was driving, he assumed it was for the move, and not a terrorist attack. “Unfortunately, you can’t read someone’s mind,” Bashir said, explaining that the terrorist had seemed in a normal state of mind when he saw him.

Just hours later, Jabbar would run the white F-150 lightning through a crowd of New Year's partygoers, seeking to create carnage and death. As he drove up, Jabbar had an ISIS flag with him, and he also posted videos online where he explained he claimed that he previously planned to harm his family but was concerned that headlines surrounding the planned incident would not focus on the "war between the believers and the disbelievers," the FBI said, which added that Jabbar had joined ISIS before the summer.

After the attack, the FBI said that he was not directed by the organization, but that he was inspired by ISIS to commit the heinous crime.

This is a developing story.
