Cops said the driver is in hospital,but wouldn't confirm it was a heart attack.
I don't think its connected to yesterdays horror in France thankfully,but that will be of no comfort to the relatives.
Just a horrid accident.
A man driving a van has ploughed into a crowd at a Christmas market in Nantes, western France, injuring 11 people. According to local newspaper Ouest France, citing a police officer and witnesses on the scene, the driver of the white van shouted "Allahu akbar" ("God is greatest" in Arabic) and stabbed himself with a knife. The driver reportedly drove at a chalet serving hot wine in front of which several people were gathered, a witness said. A local official said 11 people were injured, including the driver of the vehicle.
