The machete-wielding man who attacked officers at a security checkpoint at the New Orleans Airport on Friday night and was shot is dead and the chances of finding what may have been his motive for the attack may have died with him.
What we do know is a bag he was carrying had various Molotov cocktails and his car had smoke bombs in the trunk.
