people left dead in the streets of barcelona. a cold-blooded terrace turning a van into a murder weapon yet again. the latest attack echoing several other truck massacres, an idea highlighted by al qaeda several years ago. last summer a terrorist rammed a truck through crowds celebrating bastille day killing 86 people including three americans. months later a driver plowed through a christmas market claiming 11 lives and just weeks ago three attackers crashed into people on the london bridge before launching a deadly stabbing massacre forming -- killing michael waltz. these attacks are hard to see coming. >> terrorists found the perfect weapon, and can't stop all crowds. look at the strategy to stabilize. to finish off isis, and the statement warned about possible summer attacks in europe, extremists focus on tourist locations. us citizens should echo additional vigilance. police in barcelona with a potential terrible zion most of this. >> we will talk more about that. >> it can't be understated, the second attack that injured 5

barcelona is a city of peace.ou just a minute ago that in las ramblas there are always foreign tourists. it is very popular, a very busy area, and the driver of the value exactly what he was doing when he there. —— the driver of the van knew exactly what he was doing. one witness told us what she saw. we were in a market which is on las ramblas and we were about to go back onto the main street. we stopped to look at some ca kes street. we stopped to look at some cakes in the bakery and suddenly there was screaming and hundreds of people just swarmed towards the screaming, and running and lots of confusion. we ran into the bakery and ran upstairs to hide. as we looked out the window people were still running through the market. there were hundreds and hundreds of people running through the market. shutters were coming down. lots of screaming and running. then we waited a few minutes for things to come down and we were told we could go out, so we went back out into the market and a second wave hit, and we we re mark

a current barcelona player here. correspondent on the ground, there are still security operations going on, still helicopters in the sky, sirens on the streets, people who are very frightened and have been fighting for hours. not only because of what has happened with the car racing down the street, ploughing into people, injuring and killing so many, but the reports there have been, which the police now say are erroneous. there were reports of a couple of gunmen in a bar, possibly hostagetaking. and this kind of thing meant that many of the people in barcelona, residents and all of the foreign tourist, were petrified and really didn't know where to go. i want to bring you another eyewitness reaction. one of those who have spoken to the bbc is shelby mansell from bristol in the uk. she was ina mansell from bristol in the uk. she was in a market near the scene of the attack, and told us what she was seeing. we were in a market, which is an las ramblas. and we were just about to go back onto the main street. but we sto

this attack took place at the height of holiday season in barcelona barcelona of course being one of the top tourist destinations in europe one of the time that boulevard would have been absolutely jam packed full of tourists and locals alike and this tactic using a commercial large vehicle to plow through trials would have been used to devastating effect witnesses describe the vehicle travelling at speeds of sixty eighty kilometers an hour around five hundred metres before coming to a stop terrifyingly weaving left and right to kill as many people as possible and this is a tactic which has not only affected multiple countries across the continent but also even multiple members of the same family as one eyewitness described to us because i was just bringing my niece you're not out yet and didn't know what was going to happen my daughter was in the but. she's still here she still. can't reconcile herself thing in her room now one can of course ask could the police have done more were they prepared were lessons learned really there was very little that could be done this is a new form

, a very popular area in barcelona. mounted the sidewalk plowing into a group of people. we know there are injuries. we've seen video and footage of people lying on the ground. we do not know how many injured. we do not know how serious those injuries are. we also know that local authorities there have closed off the area, john. they have closed off the metro. they have also expanded the perimeter around barcelona, and then we have suddenly been hearing that those men behind who were driving, reportedly driving that van, just left the van, according to one witness and then went into a restaurant in the area, in a popular area of el barcelona. went into a restaurant. a witness said they heard gunshots, an explosion and a dozen people screaming, they said, and several injuries. we do not know how many more, but this is very worrying for the spanish people, very worrying, because this is the height of summer, very popular time, of course, for tourists to visit barcelona. just putting it into perspective for people, it's ve

as no i've claimed it did what occurred today in barcelona perhaps police or. been commenting on that have you seen anything on the wires or the local radio t.v. except for a. jog yeah we've actually been talking to some police just here and there dirk still not willing to confirm anything so we're really on hold on that as well. as is usual when something like this happens there is a lot of international reaction people wanting to send their condolences just really send their best wishes to the people of that city emily sue has been keeping abreast of all what's been said emily. well you know in condemnation of what happened in barcelona today really has been pouring in from all over the world but i'll start with germany right here i mean germany of course over recent years witnessed a number of terrorist to a terrorist attacks back in december a truck plowed into a christmas market in central berlin and killed over twelve people and the office of angle of merkel responded to this incident in barcelona her spokesman tweeted saying that we are thinking with pro

e—mail barcelona has also come —— the mayor of barcelona has also come, and various bodies have beento exchange the latest news and information on the attacks on barcelona and cambrils. this is an adequate response, i want to stress and to value what society is doing to show us their attitude. the people of catalonia, and their reactions, we have woken up. still batted emotionally because of what we lived through yesterday. but we also got out of bed determined, determined to win against terrorism, with the best weapon in our society has. that is solidarity. freedom. and, as proof of this, we have had this admirable, spontaneous demonstration, the shout of "we are not afraid". only a few hours ago battered by the assassins, this is oui’ weapon. battered by the assassins, this is our weapon. this is what we have. together with professionalism, coordination and the efficiency of the security safety parties and in particular special reference to the armed forces, police, because there are two who have been injured. this isa are two who have been injured. this is a global fight against t

barcelona, spain.enes of carnage and mayhem sicken us all. as the president said earlier today, the united states condemns this terror attack and we will do whatever is necessary to help. whatever inspired today's terror attack, the united states stands ready to assist the people of spain and find and punish those responsible. on this dark day, our prayers and the prayers of all the american people are with the victims, their families and the good people of spain. >> so the vice president had some previously scheduled remarks. he tops that off with reaction to this. interesting, because presidents of both parties take the lead in a crisis like this in the united states or around the world. in this particular case, you have vice president pence already out there doing some official event. he takes the lead publicly in front of cameras while the president is tweeting. >> shepard: ed henry live in washington. we know the lower house there, the lower governing body in spain has declared three days of mourn

terror on the streets of barcelona isa van terror on the streets of barcelona is a van ploughed into a crowd in the popular tourist area of las ramblas. the catalan government says at least 30 people are dead. it looked to me as if he was going left to right hitting people at the little stands, all ofa sudden people were screaming and running. catalan police say this is a terror attack. they said two people have been arrested. they have dismissed early reports that two gunmen were holed up in a bar in the city possibly with a hostage. welcome to outside source. we are continuing the bbc‘s live coverage of the terror attack in spain, where ivan has driven into crowds, killing at least 13 people. —— where a van. this happened in barcelona in the north—east of spain. if i take you into the city, you can see that we have highlighted the area where it occurred. las ramblas. this is a real tourist hotspot in the heart of barcelona. a white van mounted the pavement and drove into pedestrians. as we said, 13 people have been killed. we are hearing that more than 80 others have been injured a

a lot unknown at this hour in barcelona. let's begin the hour, though, with london reporter riley carlson, who is here. and so riley, we've heard these reports. after we know this van careened into this crowd, there were these reports that these two armed men ran into this restaurant or a bar. where are we on that? has that been confirmed? is there a hostage situation underway or is that not confirmed either? >> reporter: well, that is one of the big unknowns at this point in time, brooke, but that is unconfirmed. we can't say whether or not that is actually ongoing, but it is something that local media has been reporting and also something that witnesses have been reporting to local media as well. so that is a -- could be a very big part of this story that at this point is very unclear and also unconfirmed. but as you mentioned, police do say they are still searching for the driver of this van, and they do also say that they believe that this is a terror-related incident. they've activated their terrorism investigation prot

it is turkish bar in barcelona. at this hour we do not know if the gunmen inside of the bar are same people involved in today's deadly crash. but as you can imagine intelligence officials are looking at those two seeing whether or not they may be linked. we watch ad market traded off on the news amid the geopolitical concerns, with the dow jones industrial average off 174 point, a loss of nearly 1% on the s&p 500. for the very latest on what is happening there in barcelona, i want to go to our very own ashley webster in the newsroom of the big headline being, they now have a suspect in custody. they have arrested someone, ashley? >> this according to a spanish broadcaster. i warn you they can be wildly inaccurate at times in situation just like this, trish, but they're showing video of a person being arrested and showing a picture of this man. there are reports that a passport was found at the scene of the attack beloved belonging to the driver. a spanish passport of a person of moroccan descent. a second van may be

barcelona has not had a major incident as far as i can recall. there's been a lot of migration across the continent that has been causing concern because there's fear than on everyone that's arriving has good intentions, but again, we don't know anything about the identity of people involved in this case. they did have a couple of terrorist attacks in 2004. bombings on trains in madrid that left 191 people dead, but since then, it has been to an extent on the radar. >> harris: i need to break in and will bring you back. i need to get to sky news right now, they're talking with a witness. >> you are caught up in this crash. >> we didn't see victims, we saw people sort of running. just trying to get far away from this scene. >> up until that point, this is a normal summer's day in barcelona. >> this morning, there does some to be a lot of police about. >> i know you're back in your hotel, we were speaking to a colleague of mine who's in barcelona at the moment who's suggesting people are being told to get indoors, to stay in their offices and their

this was las ramblas in barcelona.h tourists and shoppers when a white van drove through them all, mowing down people for half a kilometre before the driver fled. it was the definition of fear yesterday. people were terrified. they were running without knowing in which direction they were going. it was incredible to watch how quickly people reacted. how quickly people responded and worked together. because people were scared, people did not know what to do. through working together, a lot of people were in safer places. the authorities are now linking the attacks in barcelona and cambrils with an explosion on wednesday in the town of alcanar, in which one person died. police believe a terror cell at the house was using it for bomb—making. among those arrested, this man, driss oukabir, originally from morocco, whose documents were used to rent the van in barcelona. but he denies any involvement, saying that his identity papers had been stolen. the spanish prime minister called an emergency cabinet meeting after announci

what i was doing, ijust arrived in barcelona.ce and sunny and i was with my mum and we were going to las ramblas to get lunch. 0n the way, suddenly i saw four or five police officers and suddenly they just started running. my first thought was they were going after a thief. and suddenly more people started running and screaming and i saw this one guy, he ran and he suddenly turned around and went back and his face was... he was really scared. so i thought there was some shooting going on, but i didn't hear any gunshots. so i went towards where everybody was going and there was lots of confusion, but mostly curiosity of what was happening and going on. it must have been getting obvious by that time that people we re obvious by that time that people were pretty terrified? yes, but after about i would say five minutes police officers with big guns, military like guns, were shouting the people, that they had to run and basically seek cover. so that started all the panic and what i thought was that those first five minutes the police

he will discuss the terror attack in barcelona.the markets to a springloaded response to this, charlie gasparino -- >> two things happened today. number one was the terrorist attack, right? number two, i can't believe i'm saying this, when gary cohn, the nec chairman, said -- there was a report that he might leave the trump administration over president trump's, i guess, remarks about charlottesville. the market dived. now, here's what we understand from people close to the, close to the white house -- liz: hold on, charlie. so sorry to interrupt. here's vice president pence.

and with barcelona.nderstandable sentiments. -- was there a? subtext? there is a referendum coming up in catalonia the first of october. would what happened yesterday and what has happened overnight have any bearing on the referendum which is nonbinding and the spanish government are dismissing it. does this filter into the politics of the region? >> obviously it is on some people's minds. think it is a key driver at this stage. it could affect sentiment of how people feel barcelona about the situation, what their main concern is today. that may have a direct impact on the referendum. however, i do not think it is the top of anybody's agenda. spain, theto president of catalonia yesterday toward the ends of his own press said he was thinking the police and the services of the national government and at this time there are no divisions that count. absolutely. given the events that unfolded, totally understandable that sentiment. clearly were going to have more on this story. we will have you the latest as

four hours ago in barcelona. that primary suspect, driss oukabir, a man that is 28 years old, had just come from north africa to barcelona, but is a spanish resident, a long-time spanish resident. spent some time in jail back in 2012, some facebook rants earlier before it was taken down about israel in palestinian lands, rantings of an isis supporter. isis claims responsibility for this terror attack that left 12 dead and 80 in hospitals. trace gallagher with an update. trace? >> we've taken a number of witness accounts and police accounts to see what happened in barcelona today. we're getting a better picture. for those that don't know the las ramblas avenue or las ramblas area, the avenue runs about 1.2 miles long. the way it works is, you have this pedestrian area in the middle of the boulevard and then you have traffic coming down on both sides. the witnesses say apparently the attacker came up on the curb and he was going somewhere between 50 and 60 miles per hour and he was swerving down the middle of the p

one in barcelona and then one overnight in cambrils about 70 miles from barcelona where five guys wearing into contact with the police and the police killed them all. however, why on earth would these guys be wearing fake suicide vests? >> well, it's hard to know what's in their head, but as an exbomb disposal guy myself, i would think they would be wearing that to gain time, to try to intimidate the people around them in case they needed to escape, to hold the police off long enough for them to be able to come up with some other plan. steve: yeah. >> i suspect that it's not anything more than to make themselves look dangerous so they can do more of their deeds. steve: yeah. with about a dozen guys involved in this particular cell, that we know of, it sounds like part of the cell blew themselves up wednesday into thursday. apparently there is a house in another part of spain that initially they thought was just a gas explosion. apparently they had 20 canisters of butane and propane in there. so it sounds like they had bigger plans than just running over people. >> yeah. i was actually inv
