STORYLINE:
Investigators now believe the driver who barreled through a crowd of New Year’s Day revelers in New Orleans acted alone and found he posted several videos on social media pledging his support for the Islamic State group, the FBI said Thursday.
Bourbon Street reopened early Thursday afternoon, hours after authorities finished processing the scene and removing the last of the bodies earlier in the morning.
Along a block of Bourbon Street where the truck rampaged, a brass band played to a large crowd.
Trombone player and lifelong New Orleans resident Jonas Green said it was important for his band to be out on Bourbon street the day after the attack, playing on the same block where the attack took place.
"I know with this music, it heals, it transforms the feelings that we’re going through into something better," Green said. "Gotta keep on going forward."
