and it goes more to the inexperience and of jabbar. salt and rdx typically need a detonator to set it off. he did not have access to the detonator, so he used an electric match in its place to try to set off the explosive material. that is the only thing that's unique about the ieds. ieds themselves, how they were designed, functioned. something that our bomb techs with atf and fbi have seen. it's not novel. what was different is he didn't use the right, the correct device to set it off. and that is just indicative of his inexperience and lack of understanding of how that material might be set off. last comments are very important. i know that victims and family, that is that is the focus. that's why we're doing this job. that's why we're going spending hours and searching resources. atf has victim witness coordinators that are working hand in hand with all the victim resource specialists, and they're going to remain on the ground, engaged throughout services as we continue to engage and connect with the victims and the families. so ou

in 2015, when jabbar attended georgia state university, he interviewed jabbar about the struggles ofning to civilian life after the military. >> i remember a very calm, collected guy, you know, certainly no red flags. he did come across as a leader and a helper. and exactly what went wrong after that. uh, remains mysterious to me. >> this is the home in north houston where shamsud-din jabbar lived. a neighbor tells us that he was here for just about a year and a half. the aftermath of how investigators knocked down the door and fenced to access jabbar house was visible from the neighbor's yard. a neighbor tells us that he last saw jabbar on new year's eve morning. he was out front loading up a white truck. jabbar told him that he had found a new job in louisiana and he was moving there. >> the morning he was moving, i asked him if he knew hands for moving. help. help him out as a neighbor, do you need any help for moving things around? he said, i'm okay. >> mumtaz bashir lived next door to jabbar and he said they only spoke briefly on tuesday morning while jabbar was loading what he

shamsud-din jabbar from an hour before the attack. now, what's interesting here, as we look at this picture, long, light brown coat, almost like a work type coat, dark buttoned down shirt, blue jeans. and what the fbi says. and this stands out to when you look at his feet, what appears to be brown dress shoes. the poster also has this image of one of the coolers containing an ied, which they say jabbar placed near the attack. and officials now say he was, quote, 100% inspired by i.s.i.s.. new surveillance video from the night of the attack shows him speeding down bourbon street. that point narrowly missing pedestrians. of course he did hit many of them. and 14 people are dead. at the beginning of the video, though, you see the truck going over a barrier that actually was down, and that video was taken just moments before police killed jabbar. in that exchange of fire. we now have obtained exclusive video of the suspect just hours before the attack as well. this is the ring camera video i mentioned a moment ago. it's from a neighboring

jabbar was shot dead here on bourbon street. can you hear with all the noise in the background the bourbon street is coming back to life there are many similarities between the attack here and bourbon street and the attack or explosion in the cyber truck in vegas. including the fact that both individuals involved served in the 82nd airborne at what used to be called fort bragg. they used the same app. to rent their vehicles. but beyond that the fbi says there really isn't any hard evidence connecting the two. charlie? >> charlie: great reporting as always, mike. couple questions. there is some speculation after the facts with the photos of the truck in new orleans that the isis flag was somehow sort of concealed. was there some reason for that or was that -- is that misreporting? >> you know, that kind of information just hasn't been released to this extent. i have seen. so after photos with that isis flag laying on the ground. so i think that will come out in subsequent days. >> charlie: and tell us what -- obviously there is s

shamsud-din jabbar was a u.s. citizen, born and raised in texas and served in the army including a tour in afghanistan before being honorably discharged as a staff sergeant and apparently becoming radicalized in the intervening years. according to the fbi, jabbar was inspired by isis and wanted headlines for the attack to focus on the, quote, war between the believers and disbelievers. the truck he used for that had an isis flag mounted on the back in the fbi is investigating it as an back of terror. had weapons of the truck and amplifies the explosive device. officials released the surveillance pictures showing jabbar an hour in the french quarter. they said he was planting other ied's, two of which have been disarmed. to be clear, contrary to what law enforcement said yesterday, it's now believed that jabbar indeed acted alone. >> we do not assess at this point that anyone else involved in this attack is involved in this attack except for shamsud- din jabbar. the subject you have been briefed on. >> in nevada, a
