Police confirmed people had died after a van ploughed into a crowd of people in Las Ramblas area of Barcelona, in what police say was a terror attack.

Spanish media reported at least two people have died but police have not yet confirmed the number of casualties.

Authorities said the vehicle mounted a pavement and struck people in a "massive crash" in an area of the city that is popular with tourists.

El Periodico newspaper reported there were between 20 and 25 people injured, citing police sources.

The El Pais newspaper reported that the driver of the vehicle had fled on foot and that police are looking for a man about 1.70 metres tall, wearing a white and blue stripped shirt.
The Reuters news agency reported that two armed men had entered a restaurant in the city centre after the van crash. One witness told The Independent he had heard a hostage situation was unfolding.

It is unclear whether those men were involved in the crash.

The van entered the pedestrian street from Placa de Catalunya and crashed into a kiosk on La Rambla.

Emergency services said people should not go to the area and requested the closure of nearby train and metro stations.

Daniela Goicoechea, who was walking along La Rambla with three children aged one, two and five, told The Independent: "People started running but we didn't know what was happening. There was a lot of people running. Then policemen began chasing people. We were lost, we ran with three babies and hid in a cafe nearby."


13 death people confirmed for now and more than 50 injured. Has been confirmed as a terrorist attack.

Guardian wrote:Reports of arrest and identification of suspect

Local media is reporting that one person has been arrested in relation to the attack.

Separate reports said the Guardia Civil have identified the suspect thought to have hired the white Fiat van used in the attack. According to those reports, he is understood to be from north Africa but to possess an NIE, the identity document issued to foreigners who are resident in Spain.

It is not clear whether the reports referred to the same person.

A second van linked to the attack – assumed to have been used as a getaway car – has been found in the small town of Vic in Catalonia.


Stay safe guys. This is only going to get worse as time goes on.

Yes, sorry to say you are quite right. We're jumping to conclusions but the chances are this is a jihadist kind of attack.

The ex-head of UK's MI6 recently was saying it's going to take 20 years or more.

Even the best security and intelligence services can't be sure to stop every single possible attack, especially when it is so very easy to hire a van and ram it into a crowd. There's no trail of suspicious purchases or internet reading to look for.

As long as the world has got the kind of semi-failed states with embittered, impoverished people who blame the West, this kind of thing will continue. It's very hard to "nation build" and it's going to take decades for somewhere like Libya to be able to recover itself.

Two suspects have been arrested and a third was (according to the media) killed in a shootout. Apparently there was an attempted vehicle attack earlier in the day in Barcelona on two police officers according to their twitter.

80 wounded in varying conditions, not clear how many are in critical condition. Just terrible.

ISIS has claimed the attack, but then its ISIS so apply salt as needed.

Catalan authorities have reported over a 100 people wounded of which 15 in serious condition. They expect the number of deaths to rise.

Yes, another terror attack in another City in Catalonia (The same "state" where Barcelona is the capital)

http://www.20minutos.es/noticia/3114464/0/atropello-masivo-rambla-barcelona/

https://www.theguardian.com/world/live/2017/aug/17/barcelona-attack-van-driven-into-crowd-in-las-ramblas-district

Police shot dead four suspects in the coastal town, around 120kms from Barcelona. A fifth, who was injured and arrested, has since died.
Six bystanders were wounded, one critically and another seriously, in what authorities said was a possible terror attack. Reports suggested a vehicle was driven at pedestrians in an echo of the Barcelona attack, but this has not been confirmed.
A police officer was also lightly injured in the counter-terror operation.


And a Explosion in Alcanar that killed another person:

]One person was killed and at least one other wounded in an explosion that destroyed a house in Alcanar, around 200km from Barcelona and 90km from Cambrils,
The cause was initially thought to be a gas leak but police now say they are linking it to the attacks in Barcelona and Cambrils.


7 terrorist have been killed today. (For now)

Apparently his passport and documents had been stolen by his younger brother, still a minor, to rent the two vans used in the attacks.

Also yesterday a person totally unrelated with the attacks was shot and killed by police when trying to run a police blockade (breaking an agent leg in the process).

Wounded belong to 18 different nationalities.

I think the number of different nationalities involved might be very well deliberate - I'd assume in their mindest, if they kill or at least wound citizens of as many counries as possible, there will be a larger "terror"-like impact with countries reporting on their own dead than if they had "just" killed Spanish nationals. Sick way of thinking, but I guess it would make sense to a terror cell, self-proclaimed or ISIS-trained, whatever it is.

All these recent ramming type attacks in Germany, France, UK and now Spain, have targetted popular tourist and leisure areas, plus in France there was the mass shooting at a rock concert. In the modern Europe, it's inevitable that a lot of nationalities are likely to be caught up, because that is how things are. Probably this figures into the thinking of the terrorists.

If this person or persons where on watch lists and being suspected already then we need to fragging sort stuff out.

Recently the system seems to be not stopping these guys.
Questions need to be asked why. What can be done and implemented quickly.

If system is not working. It needs to be fixed.

There will be plenty of time to allocate blame once the facts are well-known.

For once, the nationality count has gone up to 24, and the first names of the fatalities have been confirmed. At least 3 Germans, one Italian and one Belgian nationals have perished. An Australian 7 year old boy was separated from his family in the chaos and is still missing.

Of the five terrorists killed by police in Cambrils, four of them were shot by a single officer, using just five bullets (it took 3 bullets from another officer to fell the other one). They were wielding knives and wearing fake suicide vests.

Also the Barcelona van driver has been named as the passport holder younger brother, just 17 years old.
