Two critically injured after driver rams into people on French island
A driver has rammed his car into pedestrians and cyclists on the holiday island of Oléron, off the west coast of France, injuring five people - including two who are in a critical condition.
A local man in his mid-30s deliberately drove into people and was arrested after being immobilised with a stun gun, authorities said.
The man drove some distance between two villages on the island, mowing down several people including a young girl, the mayor of Dolus d'Oléron Thibault Brechkoff said.
He eventually abandoned his vehicle and set fire to it before running away, Brechkoff said.
The public prosecutor for La Rochelle, Arnaud Laraize, said the suspect was known to police and that he shouted "Allahu Akbar" ("God is greatest"
at the moment of his arrest.
