An attacker
killed up to 80 people and injured scores when he drove a heavy truck at
high speed into a crowd watching Bastille Day fireworks in the French
Riviera city of Nice late on Thursday, officials said.
Counter-terrorist
investigators were seeking to identify the driver, who a local
government official said opened fire before police shot him dead. The
official said weapons and grenades were found inside the 25-tonne,
unmarked truck.
The attack, which
came eight months and a day after Islamic State gunmen and suicide
bombers killed 130 people in Paris, appeared so far to be the work of a
lone assailant.
Newspaper Nice-Matin quoted unidentified sources as saying the driver was a 31-year-old local of Tunisian origin.
