Police superintendent Anne Kirkpatrick provided further details, revealing that the driver was barreling along at breakneck speed, deliberately targeting individuals before crashing his pick-up truck. In the aftermath of the collision, he then whipped out a weapon and opened fire, striking two police officers who were rushed to the hospital in a critical condition.
A man who was out on the street with his wife during the nightmare recounted seeing an SUV “hurtling at high speed and mowing people down.” Social media has been flooded with footage that captures the sheer pandemonium, with the sound of gunfire ringing out in the background and terrified people fleeing the scene in droves.
