Hours before the attack, he posted videos on social media expressing admiration for ISIS and a desire to kill. The FBI is examining his potential links to terrorist organizations including ISIS after an ISIS flag was found in the vehicle involved in the attack.

In addition to the New Orleans incident, investigations are ongoing into an explosion involving a Tesla Cybertruck outside a Trump organization property in Las Vegas which occurred around the same time. U.S. President Joe Biden has confirmed that authorities are exploring whether there is any connection between the two incidents. Elon Musk Tesla's owner has suggested that the events could be linked pointing to the fact that both vehicles involved in the attacks were rented through the Turo app.
