Man Drives Into Pedestrians in France

Man shouting 'Allahu Akbar' drives into crowd in France, injuring 11

The attack came the day after a French convert to Islam was shot dead after attacking three police officers with a knife while also reportedly crying "Allahu Akbar" in the central town of Joue-les-Tours.

The driver in Dijon was arrested by police after targeting passersby at five different places in the city on Sunday evening, a police source said.

"Nine people were lightly injured and two others seriously but their lives do not appear to be in danger," the source added.

Witnesses told police that the driver shouted "Allahu Akbar" and "that he was acting for the children of Palestine," a source close to the investigation said.

Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve told French television station TF1 on Sunday that the man who was shot dead the day before after attacking a police station in Joue-Les-Tours was "very unstable".

"The man, born in 1974, is apparently imbalanced and had been in a psychiatric hospital"

This is starting to sound familiar?

Did you not know that already?

From the link in the op

Last week in Australia, an Iranian-born Islamist with a history of extremism and violence entered a cafe and held people hostage for 16 hours before being killed. Two of the hostages also died.

No, I don't know. I was pointing out some possibilites. Is it that far fetched to think that some drugs can put the right/wrong person in a video game state of mind? Not able to tell real from imaginary. Soon as I seen title of topic

Man Drives Into Pedestrians in France

It reminded me of the GTA video games, and esspeasally Vice City in the case of the tragoc NY shooting

And also coming off them, drugs I mean.

Coming off can sometimes be worse than being on them.

"video game state of mind ? "

You don't need drugs to achieve that.
