Random accident? No barriers to keep vehicles from mixing with pedestrians?
“...a car collided with pedestrians”
“...deeply saddened”
There sure is an epidemic of cars hitting groups of people. Very odd.
When there is no name or description of the driver, what do you think?

Caused by no one in particular. Anyone guessing as to the motivations of the attacker will be arrested.
What about the Ukrainian male model ramming accident?

Who knows about this incident (and suspicious ones in the US) but terrorist groups have advised believers to use vehicles to kill pedestrians.
“The Islamic State is now using trucks equipped with metal plates welded to the cab to protect the driver, so that they can deliver large explosive devices to their intended targets. U.S. soldiers have reportedly named these customized suicide vehicles “Franken-Trucks.”

Magazines like ISIS’s Rumiyah and Al-Qaeda’s Inspire have featured detailed guides and justifications for using vehicles as weapons.
The Combating Terrorism Center at West Point notes that in September 2014, Islamic State spokesman Abu Muhammad al-Adnani called for supporters to use vehicles as weapons. He instructed followers to use rocks, knives, or cars to attack disbelievers.
It’s those auto pilot cars, self drivers
Can’t possibly be a human being who would do that?
Next thing you know, he will devolve into "something happened" in Liverpool.
Looks like he keeps steering the car into the densest crowd. Definitely intentional!
BTW. These mass car killings seems to be getting a lot more common, especially in Europe and New Zeeland! Maybe the strict gun control laws have something to do with them?
No name mentioned = we know what.
You better believe it - esp. if you put it up on social media.

We would ask people not to speculate on the circumstances surrounding tonight’s incident on Water Street in Liverpool city centre.
We can confirm the man arrested is a 53-year-old white British man from the Liverpool area.
Extensive enquiries are ongoing to establish the circumstances leading up to the collision.
Yep they’ll put you in a cell next to Tommy Robinson.
One of the million Mooohammeds?
