Nice, France At least 73 people were killed Thursday night when a large truck plowed through a crowd celebrating Bastille Day in Nice, France, the Nice prosecutor's office said, according to French media. The driver pointed his tractor-trailer into the crowd and accelerated, mowing bodies over. The driver was shot to death, authorities said. At least 100 people were injured, authorities said. Here are the latest developments in the tragedy: • The attack in Nice, France, began when an occupant of the truck shot into the crowd and then drove for 2 kilometers along the pavement of the Boulevard des Anglais, the main street in Nice, regional President Christian Estrosi told CNN affiliate BFM-TV. He said police later found firearms, explosives and grenades in the truck. • Anti-terror prosecutors have taken over the investigation, according to BFMTV, citing the prosecutor's office.
edit: just saw video of this and it's not the eiffel tower on fire. a nearby building is billowing smoke around it making it appear that it is.
What a fucking mess. And yet people still can't admit there's a problem. Can't wait for the usual crowd to come in and blame the Crusades and Islamophobia and racist white people and blah blah fucking blah.
You think its the usual suspects? Religion of peace strikes again? Never heard of them using a truck to stampede a whole bunch of people before but when it comes to massacring a whole bunch of people they are creative as fuck.
I certainly do. http://www.vocativ.com/340859/revenge-killing-isis-supporters-celebrate-nice-attack/ “Oh France, you and the all Europe will never be secure until we will live secure on every inch in the land of the Caliphate,” wrote one ISIS supporter whose Twitter account has since been suspended. “This is the beginning of the attack to take the holy revenge for the killing of Abu Omar Shishani, may Allah accept him,” a jihadi posted on the ISIS al-Minbar forum shortly after the attack. لن تأمني بالأمان يا فرنسا وجميع اوروبا حتى نعيشه واقع في كل شبر من ارض الخلافة #نيس — همي رضى ربي286 #منبج (@abomusaab_286) July 14, 2016 (Translation: “Oh France, you and the all Europe will never be secure until we will live secure on every inch in the land of the Caliphate.”) ISIS supporters have created a hashtag that translates to “#the attack on the name of Omar Shishani.” Perhaps unsurprisingly, a top U.S. official tells The Daily Beast that ISIS is already a top suspect in the attack. Shishani was kind of a big deal to those guys.
You mean an assault transmission? Has anyone identified the make and model of the perpetrator yet, or are we going to dodge around that one too?
These islamic terrorist bitches are such assholes. They accomplish absolutely nothing and ruin lives for NO REASON. Such a broken religion, you would think it's impossible to reconcile the slaughter of innocents with anything remotely holy or worthwhile but somehow they find a way. wow, congratulations on being the shitstain of humanity
We only want the good ones. It's very difficult for them to filter them though. You need good Muslims to beat this cancer of radical Islam out of this world. I have no idea how they're going to do it but they will do it, just maybe not in our lifetimes.
Who are these so-called "good ones"? Is it those who don't pray 5 times a day and consume alcohol? They may identify themselves as Muslims but they are not real Muslims. Real Muslims wear traditional clothing, don't drink alcohol, do pray 5 times a day and support Sharia Law. Good luck finding the "good ones" among them!
