My first-hand account of the Bourbon Street/Canal Street intersection

I walked in the exact same spot at around 12:15 a.m. at the intersection where the terrorist entered Bourbon Street. At that time there were just a couple of metal temporary fences with about five police officers there. Later, they parked a police cruiser there.

I figured the area was secure from cars but obviously not. They do allow cars to drive on Bourbon Street but probably not anymore.
