New York, Jan 2 (NationPress) A tragic mass shooting occurred at the Amazura nightclub in Queens, New York, on Thursday, injuring a minimum of 11 individuals, according to The Spectator Index. This event is part of a worrying trend of attacks in the US within the last 24 hours.
Details are still forthcoming as the investigation unravels regarding the third assault on the US in just one day.
Earlier, a man deliberately drove a pickup truck into a crowd of celebrants on Bourbon Street in New Orleans' French Quarter on New Year’s Day, and a Tesla Cybertruck exploded on Wednesday, January 1, outside the Trump Las Vegas hotel, resulting in one death.
A shocking connection has been made between the Tesla Cybertruck explosion outside the Trump Las Vegas hotel and the car attack in New Orleans.
Authorities are currently scrutinizing the Tesla Cybertruck explosion as a potential act of terror.
The assault in New Orleans, which claimed the lives of at least 15 people and injured many others, is also under investigation for possible terrorism links.
The suspect, named as Shamsud-Din Jabbar, 42, a US citizen from Texas, allegedly displayed a black ISIS flag from the truck's rear bumper. This horrifying event has led to the hospitalization of at least 35 individuals, with officials labeling it a calculated act of violence.
New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell condemned the violent act, while President Joe Biden extended his condolences to the victims and their families, pledging federal assistance. “My heart goes out to the victims and their families who were simply trying to celebrate the holiday,” Biden stated.
“There is no justification for violence of any kind, and we will not tolerate any assault on any of our nation’s communities.” The investigation is now in the hands of the FBI, with support from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, the Justice Department’s National Security Division, and local law enforcement.
President-elect Donald Trump also expressed his sorrow over the tragedy, offering sympathies to both the victims and first responders. “Our hearts are with all of the innocent victims and their loved ones, including the brave officers of the New Orleans Police Department,” Trump conveyed in a post on TruthSocial.
These two events contribute to escalating anxiety regarding violent attacks or suspected terrorist acts in the US as authorities continue to probe the motivations behind these devastating occurrences.
