What are the odds this murderer is a big fan of Elon Musk like the guy in Germany?
Also:
What does this mean? They're at large? They were found not at fault and were let go? The cops told them, "get out of here, you scamp!" What?
Subheading:
Well damn it, I read the whole article but the subheading.
lol, it happens to the best of us.
The article has been updated:
It means either they haven't been found or there's nobody looking.
My take from the article is that they lack manpower, so I'm leaning towards the latter.
According to some of the news I just saw, they said the driver is dead.
WWLTV (local New Orleans TV station) just said they had multiple confirmations that he is dead. They also said all French Quarter hotels are under lockdown, so no beignets this morning, tourists. Sorry.
Just for anyone else reading through the comments, they're now reporting the driver was killed in a shoot out with police on the scene.
Apparently they were flying an ISIS flag. So probably not in this case.
Please do not fall for the right-wing rumor mill. There was a flag. That's pretty much all we can say for sure right now.

Correct.
But a concerning thing to me is that there has been a lot of crossover between some white nationalists and extreme islamist terror orgs over the last decade or so.
They have very similar (conservative) values and goals (accelerationism). One WN group that was recently busted up was called The Base, which is also the English meaning of Al Qaeda.
Though the American government is much more quick to label Islamic adjacent attackers terrorists than any white attacker.
