新奥尔良袭击：FBI表示卡车司机是单独行动的ISIS成员

联邦调查局表示，他们获取的监控录像显示，司机在撞击行人之前两个小时，在城市著名的波旁街沿街冷藏箱中放置了两枚简易爆炸装置（IED）。司机随后绕过警方封锁线，驾车撞向行人，并被警察击毙。

Investigators revealed that surveillance footage showed the driver placing two IEDs in coolers along Bourbon Street before bypassing a police barrier and ramming his truck into pedestrians. Police fatally shot him at the scene.

“这是一次恐怖主义行动，”联邦调查局反恐部门副助理主任Christopher Raia在记者会上表示。“这是预谋的邪恶行为。”

"This was a terrorist act," said Christopher Raia, deputy assistant director of the FBI's counterterrorism division. "It was a premeditated and evil act."

此前，执法部门根据其他人在波旁街与IED交互的画面，认为可能有其他人参与袭击。调查后发现，这些人只是查看冷藏箱内部，并不知晓司机的意图。Raia表示，“我们评估认为，除Shamsud-Din Jabbar外，没有其他人参与此次袭击。”

Authorities initially suspected additional involvement due to footage of people interacting with the coolers on Bourbon Street. Later, it was determined that these individuals were merely inspecting the coolers and were unaware of the driver's intentions.

更多调查显示，Jabbar是来自德州的42岁美国公民，他在袭击前几个小时发布了社交媒体视频，声称自己去年夏天加入了ISIS，并留下了遗嘱。

Further investigation revealed that Jabbar, a 42-year-old Texas native, uploaded social media videos hours before the attack, stating he joined ISIS the previous summer and left a will.

在另一段视频中，Jabbar提到他原本计划针对亲友下手，但担心媒体报道不会聚焦“信徒与非信徒之间的战争”。FBI认为，Jabbar特意选择波旁街为目标，但具体原因尚不清楚。

In another video, Jabbar mentioned initially planning to target family and friends but feared the media wouldn't emphasize the "war between believers and non-believers." The FBI suspects Bourbon Street was intentionally chosen, though the exact motive remains unknown.

袭击现场的卡车中找到了一面ISIS黑旗。FBI表示，除了Jabbar种植的两枚IED，其他关于爆炸装置的报告均属错误信息。

An ISIS flag was recovered from the truck at the scene. The FBI clarified that only the two IEDs planted by Jabbar were functional, debunking reports of additional devices.

FBI还表示，新奥尔良袭击与当天在拉斯维加斯发生的事件无关联，后者涉及一辆特斯拉卡车在Trump International Hotel外爆炸。新奥尔良法医报告称，死亡人数15人包括被警方击毙的Jabbar。

The FBI also ruled out a connection between the New Orleans attack and a Las Vegas incident involving a Tesla truck explosion outside the Trump International Hotel. The New Orleans coroner confirmed the 15 fatalities included Jabbar.

这场袭击将充满节日气氛的波旁街变成了血腥的惨案现场，造成大量人员伤亡，附近的超级圆顶体育馆的大学橄榄球比赛也被推迟至周四举行。

The attack turned Bourbon Street into a gruesome scene, leaving many dead and injured. A college football game at the nearby Superdome was postponed to Thursday.

更多调查和加强安保措施正在进行，市长Latoya Cantrell表示，波旁街将重新开放。

Further investigations and security measures are ongoing, with Mayor Latoya Cantrell announcing the reopening of Bourbon Street.

FBI表示，袭击与当天拉斯维加斯的事件没有关联。拉斯维加斯事件涉及一辆装载汽油罐和大型烟花的特斯拉卡车在Trump International Hotel外发生爆炸。新奥尔良法医周三晚报告称，15名死亡者中包括Jabbar，他在向警方开火后被击毙。

The FBI confirmed no link between the New Orleans attack and the incident in Las Vegas, which involved a Tesla truck packed with gasoline canisters and large fireworks exploding outside the Trump International Hotel. The coroner reported that the 15 fatalities included Jabbar, who was shot by police after firing at officers.

袭击发生后，波旁街成为一片血腥的惨状，受害者受伤严重，街头的行人纷纷躲入夜总会和餐馆避难。数十人受伤，旁边的超级圆顶体育馆的大学橄榄球季后赛因此被推迟至周四。

The attack turned Bourbon Street into a scene of carnage, with victims severely wounded and pedestrians fleeing for safety inside nightclubs and restaurants. Dozens were injured, and the nearby Superdome postponed a college football playoff game until Thursday.

新奥尔良市市长Latoya Cantrell表示，波旁街将在比赛前重新开放，并会加强安保。FBI称，事件没有其他公共安全威胁。

Mayor Latoya Cantrell stated that Bourbon Street would reopen ahead of the game, with increased security measures in place. The FBI confirmed there was no additional threat to public safety.

“新奥尔良市，我们坚韧不拔，”Cantrell在记者会上表示。

"The city of New Orleans, we’re resilient," Cantrell said at a press conference.

执法人员已在休斯顿地区展开大规模搜索，并在调查过程中花费数小时调查与案件相关的住所。Raia表示，Jabbar于周二在休斯顿租用了作案用卡车，并在跨年夜将其开往新奥尔良。

Authorities conducted extensive searches in the Houston area, spending hours investigating a home believed to be connected to the case. Raia stated that Jabbar rented the truck used in the attack in Houston on Tuesday and drove it to New Orleans on New Year's Eve.

截至周四早晨，尚未有其他逮捕的消息。

As of Thursday morning, no additional arrests had been reported.

同时，当地官员在袭击发生前，针对城市安保措施提出了更多问题。此次袭击再次展示了车辆作为武器实施大规模暴力的潜力。

Local officials faced more questions about security protocols in the city ahead of the attack, highlighting the growing threat of vehicles being used as weapons for mass violence.

Jabbar驾驶租来的皮卡车驶上人行道，绕过了阻止车辆通行的警车。警方表示，原本为了防止车辆袭击而安装的屏障系统正在维修，以为超级碗做准备。

Jabbar drove a rented pickup truck onto the sidewalk, maneuvering around a police car blocking vehicular traffic. Authorities mentioned that a barrier system designed to prevent vehicle attacks was under repair in preparation for the upcoming Super Bowl.

“他突破了保护行人的安全措施，执意制造了这场惨剧，”新奥尔良警察局局长Anne Kirkpatrick周三表示。

"He overcame the safety measures in place to protect pedestrians and was determined to create the carnage he did," said New Orleans Police Superintendent Anne Kirkpatrick.

公开记录显示，Jabbar在休斯顿从事房地产工作。四年前发布的一段宣传视频中，Jabbar提到自己是出生并成长在休斯顿以东约130公里的博蒙特市。

Public records revealed that Jabbar worked in real estate in Houston. In a promotional video posted four years ago, he mentioned being born and raised in Beaumont, a city located about 130 km east of Houston.

Jabbar曾在2007年3月到2015年1月期间服役于正规军，并于2015年1月到2020年7月期间在预备役服役。军方发言人表示，他曾在2009年2月至2010年1月间部署到阿富汗，并在服役结束时担任中士。

Jabbar served in the regular Army from March 2007 to January 2015 and then in the Army Reserve from January 2015 to July 2020. An Army spokesperson confirmed he was deployed to Afghanistan from February 2009 to January 2010 and ended his service with the rank of Staff Sergeant.

FBI官员多次警告，由于以色列与哈马斯的冲突，国际恐怖主义威胁上升。过去一年，联邦调查局已经破获了其他潜在的袭击事件，包括今年10月在俄克拉荷马州逮捕的一名阿富汗男子，该男子涉嫌策划选举日对人群的袭击。

FBI officials have repeatedly warned of heightened international terrorism threats due to the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict. Over the past year, the agency has thwarted other potential attacks, including the arrest of an Afghan man in Oklahoma in October, who was allegedly plotting an attack on large crowds during Election Day.

同时，美国其他城市的当局表示，他们已经加强了安保措施，包括在纽约市的特朗普大厦和时代广场，声明中还指出目前没有立即的威胁。

Authorities in other U.S. cities, including New York, have increased security measures around places like Trump Tower and Times Square, while confirming that no immediate threats have been identified.

在华盛顿，警方表示，他们也加强了在首都的警力部署，准备迎接本月的三大重要活动：国会1月6日的特朗普总统选举认证，1月9日为已故前总统吉米·卡特举行的国葬，以及特朗普1月20日的就职典礼。

In Washington, police have increased their presence as the capital prepares for three major events this month: the certification of Trump's presidential election victory on January 6, the state funeral for former President Jimmy Carter on January 9, and Trump's inauguration on January 20.
