The woman, who identified herself as Shay, told The Post she saw the truck on Tuesday and her surveillance footage shows the vehicle’s lights turn on at around 12:25 a.m. on New Year’s Day.

“I saw the truck parked outside the house earlier [Tuesday],” Shay said.

“Never saw the flag,” she said of the ISIS pennant that was flying from the back of the Ford F-150 Lightning when Jabbar carried out the heinous rampage. “There was none of that. I just recognized the Texas plate and the type of car.”

“I’m always paying attention to who is staying next door so I know for sure it was his truck,” she emphasized to The Post.

Shay said she was evacuated from her home at 7 a.m. Wednesday and wasn’t permitted to return until 12 hours later.

Larkin McBride, 22, another neighbor, got home at 3 a.m. Wednesday to a chaotic scene playing out on her block.

“Early this morning there was a bunch of fire trucks on this block and then by the time I woke up there was FBI, police and bomb squads,” she told The Post. “They had this area shut down all day.”

McBride said it smelled like burned plastic in the neighborhood when she got home, but speculated that it could have just been caused by fireworks.

Bomb-making materials were found in the Airbnb, sources have told WVUE.

A small fire broke out at the property at 5:30 a.m. Wednesday, though the cause of the blaze remains unclear.
