Suspect behind the attack had been arrested, Nice Mayor Christian Estrosi told media.
He said it appeared that the incident had been a terrorist attack on the city’s Basilica of Notre Dame. I ask the people of Nice to avoid the targeted area to let the police and the emergency services work, wrote Estrosi.
