United States President-elect, Donald Trump, has attributed the deadly truck attack on a crowd of revelers in New Orleans on Wednesday to illegal immigration, the issue at the heart of his election victory.

Newspot reports that no fewer than 10 people were killed after a vehicle drove into a large crowd in New Orleans, a city in Louisiana, United States.

Posting on social media, Trump said criminals immigrating into the country are worst than the indigenous ones.

“When I said that the criminals coming in are far worse than the criminals we have in the country… it turned out to be true,” he said.

Meanwhile, the police have not indicated the nationality or identity of the attacker.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation, FBI, said that violent crime is sharply down across the country.
