| Responses to the New Year's Terror Attacks: 'We Need to Pray' |
| by Sarah Holliday |
| Just two days into the new year, and America is already facing a series of dire circumstances. Around 3:00 a.m. on New Year's Day, New Orleans was hit with what many believe is a terrorist attack after a man rammed through a crowd in a truck bearing an ISIS flag. He killed multiple people and injured dozens of others.

The only person killed was the man inside the vehicle at the time of the explosion. However, at least seven people were injured. |
