New Orleans attacker had recorded street using Meta glasses – FBI  BI says the man accused of the ramming attack that killed 14 revelers on a crowded New Orleans street had earlier visited the city on apparent reconnaissance missions, once recording the location using camera-equipped glasses. "Jabbar was wearing a pair of meta-glasses when he conducted the attack on Bourbon Street, but he did not activate the glasses to live stream his actions that day," FBI special agent Lyonel Myrthil tells reporters.

00:00Jabbar placed the second IED in a bucket-type cooler on Bourbon and Toulouse streets.

00:10In the videos, at 3.15 a.m., Jabbar used his pickup truck as a lethal weapon before crashing

00:20into the construction equipment and was stopped by the brave men and women of NOPD.

00:25Jabbar was wearing a pair of metaglasses when he conducted the attack on Bourbon Street,

00:31but he did not activate the glasses to livestream his actions that day.

00:39Thanks to information that is coming in from the public, we now know Jabbar was here in

00:44New Orleans also on November 10th, but we are still piecing together the details of

00:51that trip.

00:53Jabbar made at least two trips to New Orleans in the months prior to the attacks, one in

01:00October and the other a month later in November of 2024.

01:06From what we now know, Jabbar stayed at a rental home in New Orleans beginning October

01:1230th, 2024.

01:15He was in town at least two days.

01:19During that time, Jabbar, using metaglasses, recorded a video as he rode through the French

01:25Quarter on a bicycle.

01:29This video shows Jabbar during that trip in October with his metaglasses as we continue

01:35to learn more about that trip.

01:38So the glasses were recovered on the person of Jabbar following him being neutralized

01:45by NOPD and we believe he was wearing them throughout the evening.

01:54So we don't have any indication that he was actually recording, but he was wearing those

01:58glasses.

01:59We have also tracked that Jabbar traveled to Cairo, Egypt from June 22nd until July

02:073rd of 2023.

02:10A few days later, he flew to Ontario, Canada on July 10th and returned to the U.S. on July

02:1913th on 2023.

02:23Our agents are getting answers as to where he went, who he met with, and how those trips

02:29may or may not tie into his actions here in our city in New Orleans.

02:34All investigative details and evidence that we have now still support that Jabbar acted

02:40alone here in New Orleans.

02:44We have not seen any indications of an accomplice in the United States, but we are still looking

02:49into potential associates in the U.S. and outside of our borders.

02:54The case is still very early on.
