“Salim el Koudri, a 31-year-old Italian citizen of Moroccan origin. The motive is not yet known”.

Mystifying.

Right. Because when a lunatic drives a car into the crowd you happen to be standing in, you are NOT terrorized. Not at all.

The motive will never be found. That is the way muslims work. Oops, I intended to say Amish.

Most certainly- but Ferrari cars are not built in Modena, Maseratis are. Though, avowedly, Maranello, the town where the Prancing Horses are built, is located in Modena province.
