One man has died and at least 14 people were injured when a Fremont man purposefully drove his sport-utility vehicle onto sidewalks and crosswalks in San Francisco and Fremont today, according to San Francisco police.

The victims appear to include a Fremont man, a 78-year-old man who was using a cane to cross the street when he was struck, and a woman in her 70s. Earlier reports that a child was injured was incorrect.

MSM covering it, but I must say I was surprised to NOT see it in Breaking. Was not the Seattle shooting incident in Breaking?

What do you mean it isn't news in California?

There are multiple links about it in your post below, including the second one and fourth one.

It is also at the top of CNN News links, although I had to laugh at their spin: "SUV Driver...."

Every story I've read about this mentions the name once, mostly with just an initial for his middle name. Aziz, I believe. MSM downplaying, no, covering up the fact that this man is 99% muslim. All of them are concentrating on it being a SUV. Savage said this would happen today on his show as the news was breaking. He said by tomorrow, MSM will be coming up with excuse and sympathy for the driver.

I bet he's right.

It'll be interesting how Rush handles it tomorrow.

Man's name reported as Omeed Aziz Popal.

Agree that it is being treated with kid gloves when it is being reported and I'm sure there is an agenda behind it.

Not revealing the perps name and / or attributing the entire incident to an SUV, as the MSM so often does, drives me nuts.

I trust the Pajamahadeen will uncover the truth if the MSM refuses to do so. Hopefully, the truth will then come out.

Having said that, I prefer facts to rash conclusions. Speculation in the absence of facts could result in a "boy who cried wolf" situation, so I don't always immediately state what I'm thinking. Remember post-911 on this very forum when every jaywalking incident was attributed to terrorism?

Savage must have said his name 30 times in 10 min. I get home home. Bring up a news article about it. First one had Aziz. As the news traveled to other agencies, it became Omeed A. Popal. Kind of weird I thought.

Hi All-

This is the first I've heard of this attack on innocent pedestrians by a crazed Muslim driving a vehicle.
