Footage has emerged of the white pick-up truck used in the attack.

The CCTV footage shows the white Ford F-150 Lightning pick-up truck moments before it sped down Bourbon Street, in New Orleans’ French Quarter, and ploughed into a large crowd of people in the early hours of New Year’s Day.

As we’ve been reporting, it is believed the attacker, Shamsud-Din Jabbar, rented the electric vehicle via an app called Truro.

We have removed parts of the footage which appeared to show the truck hitting people.
