they note that it was a vehicle ramming the number of individuals who have been killed. obviously we know from new orleans officials that number stands at ten. it's possible those numbers could change. we also know that this person who conducted this attack conducted it and was deceased after firing at two new orleans police officers or perhaps more police officers, but at least two were struck and are currently at the hospital in stable condition. and so this investigation is very much ongoing. there's active work that's being done, and we'll have to see where it goes, but with respect to the actual motive, remember, as you know, hallie, terrorism covers a number of different things. it can be inspired or directed by a foreign terrorist organization, isis, al quada o could be a group of individuals, a political cause. we've seen it all in the last year or two. we've seen to evy's point these type of attacks, the vehicle ramming attacks executed throughout the world. everything they've been discussing are coming into focus. obviously they're moving forward with this inve

that car ramming is easy. all you have to do is find a place that you can get a vehicle into a crowd. unfortunately, it's been at markets. it's been on sidewalks sometimes, particularly in europe, where bad guys have literally just driven up on the sidewalk on any street that you or i or anybody else could walk down and just mowed people down. very difficult to defend against. but isis knows that. and so car ramming is just sort of one of those things that they encourage people to do. >> should people be afraid when they're going to big public events? >> do you think about the number of places we typically go to baseball games, football games, basketball games, concerts, etc? obviously, there's a lot of people at those events. they tend not to go after those events because they're too difficult to get into. but outdoor places or things that are sort of wide open, like people going up and down the french quarter day in and day out. or you can pick another location. it is that's considered a soft target. i don't

a ramming attack is the simplest thing.ou just need a vehicle, a foot to punch, an accelerator, and a crowded street to drive down very fast. and yet take a look at jabbar tactics and techniques. here he's combining the ramming attack. he's got secondary weapons, the firearms, which he shoots it out with police. he's got remote controlled devices that are attached to radio receivers in two separate ieds on either end of the set that he's built for this carnage, and he's got this rare explosive compound that he could make at home and a bomb factory at an airbnb where you see traces of this powder that was there, as well as traces of it found in filter paper at his home in, in houston. so he put a lot more work into the explosive part of this than the ramming part of it. luckily, because police engaged him in this gunfight immediately, he never got to press those buttons. >> and joe biden, if the new orleans attacker used this compound. what what i mean, does that raise questions to you about, uh, other people's involvement o
