US President-elect Donald Trump called a car that hit pedestrians in New Orleans, Louisiana, an "act of pure evil" and promised to support the city in investigating this emergency.
„Our hearts go out to all the innocent victims, including the brave New Orleans police officers. The Trump administration will fully support New Orleans in its recovery and investigation into this act of pure evil," a statement posted on Trump's Truth Social page said.
“Criminals coming into the United States from outside are far more dangerous than those within our country,“ the US leader-elect added.
