Un estadounidense con una bandera del Estado Islámico (EI) “desesperado por provocar una masacre” atropelló el miércoles a una multitud en Nueva Orleans, matando al menos a 15 personas e hiriendo a decenas, según las autoridades.

El FBI identificó al atacante como Shamsud Din Jabbar, un exmilitar de 42 años residente en Texas. Era agente inmobiliario en Houston y fue especialista informático en el ejército por 10 años.
