At least 10 people were killed and dozens injured when a driver rammed a truck into crowds on the famed Bourbon Street in New Orleans before reportedly jumping out and opening fire — just hours after the city rang in the New Year, according to officials and multiple reports.

The mass casualty incident unfolded at the intersection of Bourbon and Canal streets in the French Quarter neighborhood around 3:15 a.m. — close to where revelers had gathered to watch the city’s New Year’s Eve fireworks, city officials said.

Ten people were dead and at least 30 others were hospitalized in the wake of the ordeal, according to NOLA Ready, the city’s emergency preparedness agency.
