Over 100 injured, and the driver is dead.

Pictures show multiple bullet holes in the windscreen of the truck.

Apparently the driver pulled a gun and started firing into the crowd.

Yes, just watched the coverage, they mentioned terror attack but no mention of the allegiance of the driver

I'm sure we are all now capable of leaping to conclusions.

If not, cable news coverage can help.

Can anyone here speak or understand French?
There is a 5 min. video on the link George provided. It would be interesting to understand what the person that provided the video is saying.

A tweet from the Parisian police indicates that the black smoke was caused by a malfunctioning fireworks truck. Shortly after sending that message, the police sent out a tweet asking people not to spread false rumors about the smoke.

Yes . . . the more unstable conditions become (and you know they will), the more critical it will be for ordinary people to work at staying calm and behaving rationally. Everyone will need to remember that we the people no longer have the luxury of running in circles and hoping officialdom will take care of us and our infrastructures. Maybe they can, maybe they can't.

The problem with having an open mind is that people keep trying to put things in it.

Prayers cost us nothing but time and feeling. I have no answers. And after what my family has been thru I have very little faith in prayers but sometimes prayers are all we have.
