“The FBI reported the discovery of homemade explosive devices, and investigators are working to determine whether they are functional,” said Fox News.
The incident occurred on New Year's Eve, around 3:20 AM local time, on Bourbon Street. The number of injured has risen to 35.
President-elect Donald Trump linked the incident to illegal immigration. The politician also expressed the view that criminals coming to the U.S. are far more dangerous than those already in the country.
