Shamsud-Din Jabbar, who is accused of driving a truck into a crowd on Bourbon Street and killing 14 people, wore the glasses as he rode through the French Quarter on a bicycle during a visit to the city in October, according to footage taken from his glasses and published online by the FBI.
Jabbar also visited the city on Nov. 10, the FBI said, though it’s unclear whether he recorded footage during that trip.
Jabbar, who was killed in a shootout with police at the scene, was wearing the glasses during the attack Wednesday, but there is no indication the video camera was actively recording, FBI Special Agent in Charge Lyonel Mythril said Sunday.
