Four suspects have been arrested as part of the investigation into the horrible terror attack at Nice, France.
Here’s more from the Daily Mail:
Four men believed to be linked to truck terrorist Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel who killed at least 84 people – including 10 children – after driving a lorry into a Bastille Day crowd have been arrested as police carry out raids in Nice.
A man covered with a towel was apprehended by French police this morning as the investigation continued two days after the savage attack on the Promenade des Anglais.
Officers arrested three people in Nice early on Saturday – and one on Friday night – in connection with the probe into the horrific incident when a truck rammed into crowds in the Riviera city.
The arrests come as ISIS claimed responsibility for the deadly attack and described Bouhlel as a ‘soldier of the Islamic State’.
French authorities were investigating whether the 31-year-old lorry driver had acted alone or with accomplices, and if his motives were connected to radical Islam.
The new arrests concerned the attacker’s ‘close entourage’ and were made in two different areas of Nice. The driver’s estranged wife is also still being held by police.
Around 40 elite police officers were seen raiding a small apartment at Rue Miollis – north of the central station – where one man was arrested.
Even though ISIS has claimed responsibility for the attack, liberals and pundits are still flummoxed about the motivations of the killer, of course.
