Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill has revealed new details about the recent attack in New Orleans, suggesting that multiple individuals may have been involved. Speaking to NBC News, Murrill stated, “I can say with some certainty that there are many people involved.”
Earlier reports indicated that investigators believe the primary suspect in the New Orleans attack, which left 15 dead and 35 injured, was not acting alone, according to the BBC.
Authorities suspect that explosive devices linked to the incident were manufactured in an Airbnb rented by individuals involved in the attack. However, no additional arrests have been made.
