At least eight dead and multiple people injured as Home Depot rental van speeds down New York City bike path.

Courtesy of ABC News: 

At least seven people (now eight.) are dead and others injured after a truck driver made a "purposeful turn" onto a jogging and biking path in lower Manhattan in New York City, police said. 

The sprawling crime scene runs about 10 blocks along the West Side Highway, a few blocks away from One World Trade Center.The suspect is in custody, police said. 

The incident is being investigated as a possible terrorist attack, a source confirmed to ABC News.

A vehicle -- a Home Depot rental truck, according to the company -- entered the West Street pedestrian and bike path north of Chambers Street, hitting multiple people on the path, leaving some dead and "numerous people injured," New York City police said, citing preliminary investigation. 

The vehicle kept driving south until it hit another vehicle, police said. At that point, the suspect, who was "displaying imitation firearms," got out of the vehicle and was shot by responding officers, authorities said.

That other vehicle this individual hit was a school bus full of disabled children. Which even for a terrorist is pretty shitty.

According to the news the man driving the van jumped out wielding a pellet gun and yelling "Allahu Akbar" before he was shot by police.

His name is Sayfullo Saipov. And yes he is Muslim.

All in all it was a pretty fucked up thing to happen at all, but especially fucked up that it happened on Halloween when parents were preparing to take their kids around for Trick or Treating.

It seems that now we are doing a pretty good job of stopping the largest terrorist attacks but there is really no way to keep these smaller, low tech attacks from occurring.

And for whatever reason these terrorists seem to really focus on New York City.

    And patriot people think these guys were able to mastermind 9/11 without help and enabling.
    Not buying it. Never bought it. This is all they are capable of and all they ever were capable of alone - terror attacks with vehicles like trucks and crude bombs.
    Hani Hanjour got kicked outta flight school cause he couldn't manage a small Cesna...yet the official story reports he did complicated manuevers on a jet to hit the pentagon?

    Now is not the time to talk about terrorism and terrorists. It is the time to honor and pay respect to the victims.

    Any talks at this time about terrorists is disrespecting all those killed and injured.

    This is always what you hear when guns kill a bunch of people ... maybe the GOP should also use it for terrorism.

  6. This guy looks pretty scarey to me. I wonder if he speaks English well and if the people at Home Depot really took a good look. And in the least, report a suspecion to the police department.

    Renting a Home Depot truck must have been a fairly easy task....

    There’s something incredibly suspicious about Donald Trump, Russia, and the New York City terrorist attack

    ...I’m no fan of conspiracy theories that go against the preponderance of facts and evidence. I have no idea who or what was behind this attack. But I do know that Donald Trump has spent his entire time in politics talking obsessively about “Radical Islamic terrorism.” The day after the arrests began in his Russia scandal, the very best thing that could possibly happen for him was a terrorist attack carried out by a Muslim – just down the street from the new World Trade Center, no less. And that terrorist is from a former Soviet nation which still maintains close ties to the Kremlin. Investigators must at least consider the possibility that Russian President Vladimir Putin was involved in this terrorist attack, as an attempted distraction from the arrests in the Trump-Russia scandal.

      I was thinking that. Like the 9/11 from George W. so he could start a fight with Iraq. Isn't it wonderful how we are catching on, on how all this works. It's kind of how people like Putin works. You think you know but you can't prove it. The video of the Ukranian leader and his pockmocked face from the poison, and Putin sitting there smiling serenely at him brings to mind how evil men can be.

    "rump is anti-terrorism fraud."
    "anti-terrorism funding – which he proposed cutting in his most recent budget. I’m calling on the President to immediately rescind his proposed cuts to this vital anti-terrorism funding.”"

    "“Under the president’s proposal, nearly all federal funding to the NYPD would be eradicated. This funding is absolutely critical. It is the backbone of our ENTIRE counter-terrorism apparatus.”rump’s approach is not only flawed. It is also dangerous because it ignores the prospect of homegrown radicals."

    " 60-year-old former police chief Frank Nucera Jr. was arrested this week for alleged civil rights abuses, including slamming an African-American teenager’s head into a door jamb."
    “These n*&&ers are like ISIS, they have NO VALUE,” he said, according to documents filed in a federal district court in New Jersey. “They should line them all up and mow them down. I’d like to be on the firing squad, I could do it.”

    "The complaint against Nucera also alleges that he would regularly use police dogs to intimidate black teenagers — even going so far as to have canines lined up outside the entrance to the gym at local high school basketball games"

    FB>"blaming Schumer for letting Siapov into the US is disingenuous at best and KOMPROMAT in the finest Soviet fashion at worst.
    3. Trump himself, in his midyear budget proposal, called for cutting $500,000,000 in funding for critical counter-terrorism programs administered by the Department of Homeland Security. These programs specifically target violent extremism and responding to terrorists attacks like the kind that happened in New York yesterday on Trump's watch."

    2. Cars are registered.
      Drivers are licensed.
      Cars are regulated by the state and Federal government.

      Cars are impounded and licenses revoked for all sorts of reasons like drunk driving and vehicular manslaughter. You’re not allowed to drive if you have physical and in some cases mental impairment.

      But most importantly, cars are designed for transportation. Guns are designed to kill people.

      Yes, you *are* an Asshole, Troll. Go ahead and use that penis extender to fuck yourself.
