WWLTV reported:
New Orleans emergency crews are responding to a fire in the French Quarter on Thursday.
Firefighters with the New Orleans Fire Department were seen at 1226 Chartres Street near Barracks.
A video obtained by WWL Louisiana captures smoke pouring from a two-story home as firefighters battle the blaze.
The fire was reported under control at 3 p.m. NOFD said no injuries were reported and the cause of the fire is being investigated.
Thursday’s fire comes after dozens of people were evacuated after a fire erupted at a New Orleans Airbnb rented by the terrorist who killed more than 15 people this week.
At least 15 people were killed, 35 injured after a terrorist identified as 42-year-old Shamsud Din Jabbar plowed through a crowd in New Orleans during the New Year’s Eve celebration.
According to NOLA, authorities and bomb squad technicians arrived to a rental at 1329 Mandeville Street to investigate after firefighters put out the blaze.
The Airbnb was reportedly rented by Shamsud Din Jabbar.
Law enforcement also discovered a bomb-making station at Jabbar’s trailer in Houston.
