    Eight people are dead and 11 have been injured after a truck mounted a bicycle path in lower Manhattan on Tuesday afternoon, mowing down cyclists and runners for 17 blocks, then reportedly shouting 'Allahu Akbar'.

    The 29-year-old driver, named by insiders as Sayfullo Habibullaevic Saipov, entered the bicycle path at Houston Street at 3.05pm and drove downtown, knocking down victims before smashing into a school bus at at Chambers Street.

    Two children and two adults on the bus were injured; they and seven other people are now in hospital with serious, but non-life-threatening injuries.

    After coming to a stop in his rented Home Depot truck, the terrorist then emerged from waving a paintball gun in one hand and a pellet gun in the other.


    At least it wasn't with a gun and the anti gun people can't argue that, still sad though

    The Halloween parade is still on, I don't think I'd be going.

    I heard about this in my car on the way to an appointment. I didn't have the news on like I usually do before I left home.

    Those poor souls who leave their homes, never to return. It's something I often think about. And devastated families.

    The scum perpetrator is still alive. Those people killed and injured for nothing but craziness.

    I agree ..... another terrible and senseless tragedy! We need to keep those families, affected by all this, in our thoughts and prayers.

    Was just catching up on all the news this morning about him. He had quite the driving presence with trucks and Uber...even had has own companies.

    Scary about him driving for Uber. I'm glad they got him alive and I hope he talks but who knows how much he knows. Think there are just these individuals ISIS members who just act on their own.

    Very Sad. Most of the dead are from Argentina, my birthplace. :(

    Their belief/religion definitely has something to do with it. The guy yelled out something religious after he done it.

    President Trump reportedly said send him to Guantanamo. I respectfully disagree with him. I say send his a$$ to hell!
