At least 50 people are feared dead and 150 have been injured in a Bastille Day attack in Nice, southern France

Eyewitnesses reported a gunfight between police responding to the attack and suspects at the scene

A lorry ran down a large group of people in the southern French city of Nice during a suspected terrorist attack. At least 50 people are feared dead with more than 100 injured during the Bastille Day attack.

Eyewitnesses have reported that hostages have been taken in two hotels and a restaurant in the city.

Gunshots rang out in the streets, with gunmen targeting hotels and cafes in the port city as residents were warned to lock themselves in doors for their safety. Hostages have been taken in a hotel in the city. The RAID anti-terror squad has been deployed to the city.

It is believed the gunmen are holding hostages in the Meridien Hotel, the Hotel Negresco and the Buffalo Grill restaurant.

A lorry rammed into a large group of people who were celebrating Bastille Day before gunmen started firing.

A spokesman for the Alpes Maritime prefecture advised locals to 'stay indoors' as gunfire was heard, and a lorry was driven into a crowd on the Promenade des Anglais.

Eyewitnesses said there were 'bodies everywhere' with at least 100 people injured.

The truck driver is believed to have crashed his vehicle and jumped out and started shooting.

Police are also searching for an accomplice.

At this stage, police are describing the incident as 'a major criminal attack'.

Elect Trump!

Form a worldwide vigilante militia , offer them a bounty to hunt down and kill all identified family members of identified terrorism committers.

Trump is right , go after the families . There has to be a cost too great to bear . There should be a $ incentive to go to the trouble of hunting them down . Throw mercy to the wind .

That woman is a total blooming idiot - Shelby “XXX” - didn’t catch her name.

She made a disparaging comment about Trump’s tweet.

Question for GOPe: why was Trump the only Republican candidate to talk about the problem with immigrants from a certain part of the world, when it is an obvious problem?

“I’m tired of the bulls***. I swear it seems the only male left in the entire Western world with a set of testicles and a modicum of common sense is Donald Trump.”

I’m voting Trump but he needs to stop caving to faggots, cross-dressers and black lies matter idiots.

It is surprising how quickly the police were able to open up on the truck with heavy gunfire. They must have been on the alert for terrorists. All those guys standing on street corners with scary-looking weapons finally got a job to do.

But France has gun control laws. How is it possible for a bad guy to have a gun?

I was listening earlier to the John and Ken Show here in L.A. on KFI 640AM.

John had a great idea for France. Round up everyone who has had ANY contact with an ISIS site or group and send them all away. Drag them out of their houses and deport them immediately.
Wartime actions, suspend civil rights. Just get rid of them, then shut the borders.

"... a major criminal attack"

"Martin, it's all psychological. You yell 'criminal', everybody says, "Huh? What?" You yell 'terrorism', we've got a panic on our hands on Bastille Day"

“and deport them immediately”

They need more than deportation.
