    At least 8 dead in attack in lower Manhattan

    ABC News

    At least seven people 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.

    A truck hit multiple people on the bike path on the West Side Highway, a witness told ABC's New York station WABC. The truck crashed into a school bus at Chambers and West streets, near Stuyvesant High School, the witness added.

    "Everybody started running," the witness said. "...Everything was happening so fast."

    The witness added of the driver, "He kept going all the way down full speed."

    "Thank god the trick-or-treaters weren't out yet," the witness later said.

    Video from the scene showed mangled bicycles strewn across the bike path.

    There is no active threat, according to the mayor's press secretary.

    New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo and New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio are heading to the scene.

    The FBI is also responding to the incident.

    President Donald Trump has been briefed, according to a White House spokesperson.

    Police warned that New Yorkers should expect many emergency personnel in the area.

    29-year-old Sayfullo Saipov identified as suspect in New York terror attack, reportedly left note pledging ISIS loyalty

    By David Choi
    Business Insider

    The suspect in the deadly terror attack in lower Manhattan that left at least eight people deadleft a note claiming he carried out the attack in the name of the Islamic State, senior law enforcement officials said Tuesday.

    29-year-old Sayfullo Habibullaevic Saipov of Tampa, Florida, was reported to have legallyresided in the US starting in 2010 and worked as a commercial truck driver, according to NBC News. Preliminary reports suggested Saipov, an Uzbek national, did not have an extensive criminal record, but he was reportedly stopped by police on multiple occasions for traffic violations.

    In addition to being a legal permanent resident in Tampa, Saipov reportedly lived in Cincinnati and Paterson, New Jersey, according to a law enforcement official who spoke to ABC News. The official said Saipov lived in New Jersey with his wife and three children, ABC News reported.

    Multiple reports, citing state records, indicated that Saipov had registered two automotive-related businesses in Ohio between 2011 and 2013, one of them a trucking company.

    Saipov was an active driver for Uber, making over 1,400 trips in six months, according to a company statement. Uber also said it was assisting law enforcement with its investigation and confirmed Saipov had passed a background check with the company.

    Police and government officials did not publicly identify the suspect earlier Tuesday. But local and federal officials said at a press conference that the suspect deliberately mowed down cyclists and pedestrians in a rented Home Depot pickup truck, killing eight and injuring 12. Police said the suspect drove 10 blocks in the wrong direction before striking a school bus.

    CNN reported, according to a person familiar with the ongoing investigation, Saipov rented the truck in New Jersey on Tuesday.

    He then exited the vehicle, brandished a paintball gun and pellet gun, and was subsequently shot in the abdomen by a police officer, according to New York Police Department commissioner James O'Neill.

    "This is a tragedy of the greatest magnitude," O'Neill said.

    "This was an act of terror, and a particularly cowardly act of terror," New York Mayor Bill de Blasio said at a press conference, "aimed at innocent civilians, aimed at people going about their lives who had no idea what was about to hit them."

    Multiple
    news agencies reported that Saipov shouted "Allahu Akbar," which translates to "God is great" in Arabic, as he exited the rented truck.

    "Yeah, he did make a statement when he exited the vehicle. And if you just look at the M-O of the attack – that's consistent with what's been going on. So, that, along with the statement that's enabled us to label this a terrorist event," O'Neill said.

    News agencies also reported that Saipov left a note inside his truck pledging loyalty to the Islamic State. ISIS propaganda materials have called for similarly styled attacks, using a vehicle as a weapon and leaving notes that proclaim loyalty to the terrorist organization.

    New York Times correspondent Rukmini Callimachi noted that ISIS had put out posters calling for attacks on Halloween. However, the terrorist organization has not yet claimed responsibility for the attack, Callimachi reported.

    Following news of the incident, President Donald Trump called the suspect a "very sick and deranged person" and appeared to suggest attribution to the Islamic State.

    "We must not allow ISIS to return, or enter, our country after defeating them in the Middle East and elsewhere," Trump tweeted. "Enough!

    Saipov was out of surgery from an undisclosed hospital, sources said to CNN late Tuesday.

    Victims of New York attack include five Argentinian friends on school reunion

    Officials have confirmed eight people have died and at least 11 are injured and being treated in hospital after the incident in Manhattan

    By The Guardian

    Five friends from Argentina celebrating the 30th anniversary of their high school graduation are among those killed in the deadly New York terrorist attack on Tuesday.


    Argentina’s foreign ministry confirmed the identities of the victims, all from the city of Rosario in central Argentina.


    The men were celebrating the 30th anniversary of their graduation from school when they were caught up in the deadly terror attack that has claimed the lives of at least eight people.

    The Argentinian government released a statement expressing “its sincere condolences for the death of Hernán Diego Mendoza, Diego Enrique Angelini, Alejandro Damián Pagnucco, Ariel Erlij and Hernán Ferruchi.”


    The statement said the five deaths were “a result of the dramatic terrorist attack in New York this afternoon”.


    It continued: “A sixth victim, Martin Ludovico Marro, is hospitalised at the Presbyterian Hospital of Manhattan recovering from injuries suffered, out of danger according to the official medical part.


    “The compatriots, from the city of Rosario, were part of a group of friends celebrating the 30th anniversary of their graduation from the polytechnic school of that city when the tragic event occurred.


    “The consulate general continues working in permanent contact with the police authorities and the hospital that received the affected, as well as with the
    relatives in Argentina. We accompany the families in this terrible moment of deep pain, which all Argentines share.”


    Argentina’s President Mauricio Macri later tweeted: “Profoundly moved by the tragic deaths this afternoon in NY. We place ourselves at the disposition of the families of the Argentinian victims.”


    Erlij, a 48-year-old businessman, had already been confirmed as among the victims.


    The group was part of a class of 1987 reunion.


    Local media in Argentina reported that Erlij, who owned a steel mill, paid the fares of some of his schoolmates in order for them to be able to make the trip to the US with him.


    The news came after the Belgian government confirmed one of its citizens was killed in the truck attack.


    Belgium’s deputy prime minister and foreign affairs minister Didier Reynders said a Belgian was among those who lost their lives when a truck ploughed into cyclists and pedestrians in Manhattan.


    The victim, a woman from the town of Roeselare, was on a city trip with her sister and mother, Reynders told local media.


    Reynders said that three other Belgians were “also wounded” in the attack, and were “in the operating room”.


    Local media are reporting that the three are a mother, father and son
    .


    At least eight people were killed and about a dozen more injured, including two school children on a school bus, when a man drove a truck onto a bike path near New York’s World Trade Centre site.


    On Twitter, Reynders said he was “deeply saddened” by the news of the death of a Belgian citizen.


    Earlier a statement from the Argentine consulate in New York said it was working with local officials to identify the victims adding it “is deeply shocked” by what happened.

    “Argentina reaffirms its strongest condemnation of terrorist acts and violence in all its manifestations and reiterates the need to deepen the fight against this scourge,” the statement said.
