Tourist Attack

The authorities in the Spanish city of Barcelona say 13 people have been killed and 80 injured by a van, which deliberately drove into them at a popular tourist market. The vehicle moved at speed through Las Ramblas in the city center, before being abandoned by the driver who ran away. Hundreds of tourists and local people took shelter in shops and churches, as police searched for suspects . Hours later, two of them, including a man of Moroccan origin, were arrested. Spanish media say another suspect was killed in a police shootout on the outskirts of the city. The Spanish Prime Minister, Mariano Rajoy, who is on his way to Barcelona, says he will be coordinating efforts to reinforce security, while the Catalan President, Carles Puigdemont, has called for solidarity .
