The driver of the truck that killed at least 80 people in Nice on Thursday evening was a 31-year-old resident born in Tunisia, according to French newspaper Nice Matin. The attack occurred when the driver plowed through a crowd celebrating Bastille Day during a firework display along the city's waterfront. He drove for more than a mile before being shot dead by police, according to French Interior Ministry spokesperson Pierre-Henry Brandet.

Heavy weapons and grenades were found inside the truck. French newspaper Le Figaro reports that driver fired at the crowd as he drove. While the terrorist group Daesh, also known as IS/ISIL, has not officially claimed responsibility for the attack, it is a likely suspect. In the wake of the attack, Facebook activated its "safety check" feature and social media expressed grievances for the victims. French President Francois Hollande addressed the nation after holding an emergency meeting with his cabinet. Daesh, known as ISIS/ISIL has called on followers to attack western targets, using cars, knives or rocks. "If you are not able to find an IED or a bullet, then single out the disbelieving American, Frenchman, or any of their allies. Smash his head with a rock, or slaughter him with a knife, or run him over with your car, or throw him down from a high place, or choke him, or poison him," Daesh spokesman Abu Muhammad al-Adnani said in 2014. In a 2014 video, an unnamed French-speaking Daesh spokesperson gave an order saying, "There are weapons and cars available and targets ready to be hit. … Kill them and spit in their faces and run over them with your cars." Poster Comment: Zero Hedge reported grenades inside the truck. Someone wants a lot of violence leading up to Race Wars in the US and in Europe. This incident might convince some black nutter to try the same in America over the weekend.

Odd that the "terrorists" didn't bother to drive 8 miles up the road to Monaco, where they would have found plenty of elites to run down!
