Family and friends have begun identifying the victims who were killed when a driver plowed into a crowd in the French Quarter of New Orleans on New Year’s Day.

In total, 15 people died and about 30 more people were injured when a U.S. Army veteran, flying an ISIS flag from his truck, swerved around police barriers and plowed into the crowds on Bourbon Street at approximately 3:15 a.m. local time.
