National Guard Troops Patrol New Orleans on New Year's a Year After Bourbon Street Attack

New Orleans enforces 'Super Bowl' level security with 350 National Guard troops and multiple agencies to prevent another attack after 14 killed last year, officials said.

  • New Orleans officials announced heightened security from Dec. 30 to Jan. 2, supported by Louisiana State Police, Orleans Parish Sheriff's Office, and the New Orleans Police Department, one year after the Bourbon Street attack.
  • Nearly one year after the Bourbon Street attack that killed 14 and injured dozens, New Orleans officials intensified security, saying they will not allow a repeat as residents and visitors remain in mourning.
  • 350 National Guard troops will be part of the deployment, with barricades and bollards limiting vehicle access and officers conducting bag checks at French Quarter entry points.
  • Drones are not allowed over the French Quarter until one hour after the Allstate Sugar Bowl concludes, and officials urged residents and visitors to use the See Something, Send Something app to share information.
  • Authorities describe heightened security in the French Quarter, with a visible `2nd line in the sky` memorial and increased law enforcement ahead of riverfront events like the Fleur de Lis drop at Jax Brewery, emphasizing deterrence and public safety.
