One of the videos has the person recording it shouting “kill him”, guy was scared for his safety.

So he made the choice to drive into a huge crowd despite there being a clear-ish road ahead, howay man :lol:

Probably thought he’d be badly attacked or worse. Your keep point is the rationale and the likelihood he didn’t have one at that stage.

 

Just hope no one is seriously hurt once the dust settles 🤞🏻

Aye and again that's understandable, but (based on my speculation - which I get it's speculation) why act like a dick into he first instance...

 

I personally cannot imagine losing my shit that much that I'd do that, but then we're all built differently. Either way it'll be a man slaughter charge or similar it'd seem as it doesn't appear to be terrorism or attempted murder. Suspect the bloke smashing the window might get an equally hefty charge too..

In defense of the crowd hitting the car, nobody there knew the intention of the driver at the time. We’ve seen it happen in other countries, car drives through a crowd with the intention of the driver to cause serious harm. Perhaps the crowd thought that’s what was happening tonight and their first instinct was to try and stop the driver. 
 

Whole thing is horrific. 


Just saw an interview from an eyewitness who said that particular road had been left open by the council. If true the driver had every right to be there. 
 

tbh feels wrong to be speculating over this. Just hope it’s not as bad as it looked casualties wise

Valid point! Was excellently organised. 

 

A lot of time and effort went into organising it from a lot of different bodies. 

 

Was a bit frustrating at the time all the shit the council and police were getting just because it hadn't been announced yet.

 

Whole thing went superbly given the scale.

Shocking. Just seen this.

 

Whatever the cause, whatever the reason; I'm just hoping for the 'best' result possible.

 

Thoughts to everyone there and my wish is that anyone injured makes the fullest recovery possible (both physically and mentally)

'4 of the injured are children. 27 taken to hospital, with 2 seriously injured - including 1 child'. :(

 

4 people were trapped under the vehicle, including 1 child. Needed lifting by the fire service. :(

Mate I’ve hit the accelerator by accident instead of the brake whilst parking, guy had his car attacked, his door opened, and his rear screen put in. He panicked and did something irrational.

I read it as 2 children seriously injured.

 

Devastating.

 

If prayers are listened to, they'll both make it through the night safely.

Without knowing any details at all, why was a car able to get near the crowd by the police. Have we not had enough of these incidents yet to have learnt the lesson?

When his rear screen gets put in there’s another vehicle on the road ahead of him to the right which he passes.

You want to believe it’s intentional fine. Blaring your horn and driving at people aren’t the actions of someone who intends to run people over. Yes he did run people over, yes he’s an idiot but I don’t think that’s what he set out to do.

Mate you believe the accelerator is the brake :lol:

 

Only going off the video's i've seen, looks like he made a choice to go right into the crowd when there was a clearish road ahead.
