Nice ISIS terrorist is NAMED as French-Tunisian Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel, 31, who killed 84

Nice terrorist is NAMED as French-Tunisian Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel, 31, who killed 84 including 10 children when he drove truck through crowds for a mile before opening fire on Bastille Day 

  • ISIS terrorist uses 25-tonne lorry to mow down crowds watching fireworks during Bastille Day celebrations in Nice
  • Local paper Nice Matin names suspect as Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel, a French Tunisian man, 31, from Nice
  • Death toll currently stands at 84 and dozens more people were injured in terror attack on the French Riviera
  • At least 10 babies and children were killed, some in buggies, with least 54 children also being treated in hospital
  • Eyewitnesses said driver zig-zagged at 40mph to hit crowds of people who were sent flying or jammed under wheels
  • Terrorist then jumped down from cab of lorry and opened fire with a gun before being killed by a police marksman 
  • President Francois Hollande extends state of emergency by three months and pledges to hit ISIS even harder

A terrorist gunman has killed 84 people including at least ten children after he used a 25-tonne lorry to go on a mile-long killing spree by mounting pavements at high speed and ploughing through crowds celebrating Bastille Day in Nice last night.
The killer, a 31-year-old French Tunisian named by local newspaper Nice Matin as Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel, then got out and sprayed fleeing revellers with bullets before being shot dead by police after his 30 minute rampage, which has left 54 children injured alone.
One eyewitness described seeing 'bodies flying like bowling pins' and others 'jammed' under the lorry’s wheels as the horror unfolded at around 10.30pm local time last night. 
Heartbroken men and women refused to leave the bodies of their loved ones and the dead remain strewn across the famous Promenade des Anglais today.
At least ten of the victims were children, with young girls and boys lying dead covered in a blankets with their dolls and buggies still next to them. Footage taken at the time of the attack shows bodies piled up in the roads and people running from their lives as they tried to avoid the zig-zagging lorry while paramedics treated the injured and dying in the street.
The truck driver, who was known to police, was said to have shouted 'Allahu Akbar' – God is great in Arabic – before being killed in a clear suicide mission. Pro-ISIS groups have been celebrating the attack, orchestrated to coincide with France's most important national holiday. 
A huge cache of guns, grenades and 'larger weapons' and the terrorist's identity papers were later found inside the lorry, which mounted the pavement at approximately 40mph and steered directly towards hundreds of people watching a fireworks display. 
ISIS supporters have been celebrating the attack, orchestrated to coincide with France's most important national holiday. The gunman was known to police for crimes of theft and violence, but not intelligence services, a police source said. A suspected accomplice is on the run.
France today declared three days of national mourning after the truck attack - its third major terror attack in 18 months - and President Francois Hollande today pledged to 'hit' ISIS in Syria and Iraq 'even harder' after the devastating attack, saying: 'France is in tears, it is hurting but it is strong and she will be stronger - always stronger than the fanatics who wish to hurt us.'

The Nice terrorist rented the lorry two days earlier and had been parked on the street for nearly nine hours and even told police he was delivering ice cream before carrying out his deadly attack, according to reports.
The killer, who was previously known to police for violence and theft, is reported to have had assault rifles, a pistol and even a grenade with him in the lorry - but they went undiscovered.
Despite allegedly questioning the driver, police officers in the southern French city did nothing to move him on as he waited to begin the attack.
Reports claim police allowed the killer to stay on the Promenade des Anglais because he told them he was delivering ice cream.
Although heavy duty lorries are normally banned from the roads during national holidays and Sundays, deliveries are often exempted.
Police have now formally identified the attacker as a 31-year-old French-Tunisian man who lived in Nice. They have raided several properties this morning. His family is said to be under police protection.
He was shot dead by a police officer, believed to have been female, after he opened fire into a crowd of fleeing people. 
Today the delivery truck, riddled with bullets, remains in the centre of Nice with bodies strewn nearby. 
Details of those killed are slowly emerging in the aftermath of the attack.

Black man shot and killed by Minnesota police during a traffic stop

BY Christopher Brennan Denis Slattery
NEW YORK DAILY NEWS
Updated: Thursday, July 7, 2016, 5:45 AM
A woman livestreamed the heartbreaking moments after her boyfriend was shot and killed by a cop Wednesday near Minneapolis.
In the Facebook video, the woman named Lavish Reynolds, claims the couple were pulled over for a busted taillight and that her boyfriend, identified by WCCO Philando Castile, was shot four or five times.
She said that he told the officer he had he was carrying a permitted firearm and was reaching for his wallet before the officer opened fire.
“Please no, don’t let him be gone. Why?!” Reynolds yelled on her video as Castile, 32, slumps back in the driver’s seat of his car, blood running across his shirt.

“I told him not to reach for it,” the cop says as he continues to point his weapon into the vehicle. “I told him to get his hand off it.”

Philando Castile, 32, was shot and killed by police in Minnesota during a traffic stop Wednesday evening.

Near the end of the nearly 10-minute clip, Reynolds begins screaming as she sits handcuffed in the back of a police cruiser with her young daughter.
“It’s OK, mama,” the little girls says as her mother asks for help from those on Facebook. “It’s OK, I’m right here with you.”
Castile, who worked as a cafeteria supervisor at a local Montessori school, later died at Hennepin County Medical Center, relatives told WCCO.

On social media friends relatives of Castile expressed their grief at the sudden and violent loss.
"My family will never be the same!!! This has rocked me to the core!!! I lost my cousin to the hands of the police," IRok Wilson posted.
St. Anthony interim police chief Jon Mangseth told reporters Wednesday night that two of his officers were the ones at the traffic stop with Castile.

Mangseth, who said that he could not remember another officer-involved shooting in the neighborhood of Falcon Heights, said early Thursday that the officer who shot was on paid administrative leave.
Minnesota's Bureau of Criminal Apprehension is investigating the incident.

"Why did that officer feel the need to take his life and how is that acceptable in this society," she said, adding that the officers involved should be fired and prosecuted.
She added that she was coordinating with the St. Paul NAACP about a response to the shooting.
Prosters also gathered at the Governor's Mansion early Thursday, chanting Castile's name as late as 4:30 a.m. local time, and were seen draping gates in police tape.

4 arrested after 30 person brawl at Walmart in Western New York

Four people were arrested following a 30-person brawl at the Walmart in Gates Sunday night.
According to Gates Police Chief Jim VanBrederode, officers responded around 7 p.m. to the store at 2150 Chili Ave. for a fight inside the store.
VanBrederode said the fight started after two 17-year-olds, one from Chili and the other from Gates, made fun of a dress worn by a 24-year-old. "They were verbally harassing her," VanBrederode said.
The incident escalated quickly and erupted into "a big melee," VanBrederode said. He said both the victim and the suspects had big families there. The groups grabbed items off the shelves to use in the brawl.
In the middle of the brawl, Nykia Brooks, 17, of Chili, allegedly threw a can of food at a 52-year-old man and struck him in the head, causing bleeding.
VanBrederode said people went into the sporting goods section of the store and got baseball bats to use in the fight. Officers recovered the bats before they could be used to hurt anyone. Extra police were called into deal with the situation.
Brooks is charged with second-degree assault, a felony, and second-degree harassment and disorderly conduct, both violations. She was remanded to the Monroe County Jail on $4,000 cash bail.
She is due back in Gates Town Court at 5:30 p.m. July 14.
Three others were charged with disorderly conduct and issued appearance tickets. One man who was arrested also has an outstanding shoplifting warrant from the Gates Walmart last December.
Surveillance footage is being reviewed and further arrests are pending, VanBrederode said.
It was the second violent incident that day at the Gates Walmart. Around 3 p.m. in the parking lot, a man was stabbed in the neck.
David A. Morris, 41, of Rochester was charged with second-degree assault and third-degree criminal possession of a weapon, both felonies, following the altercation.

Trump To Meet With Iowa Sen.Joni Ernst For VP Pick

The always-unpredictable Donald Trump added a bit more intrigue to his vice-presidential search on Monday in the way that only Trump can: With a trio of tweets.
In one, Trump praised Sen. Tom Cotton for his interview on NBC's "Meet the Press," in which the Arkansas senator attacked Democrat Hillary Clinton but seemed notably lukewarm on Trump. In another, Trump said he was "very impressed" with Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, with whom he met this weekend.
And Trump used a third to announce a surprise meeting with Iowa Sen. Joni Ernst, a candidate not thought to be high up on his list of vice-presidential prospects.
Those tweets capped a weekend full of vice-presidential vetting activity on both sides of the aisle, as Trump and Clinton head into the final weeks before their respective party conventions.
Related: VP Watch: July 4, 2016
Three potential Democratic vice-presidential candidates — New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker, Secretary of Labor Tom Perez and Ohio Sen. Sherrod Brown — appeared on the Sunday talk shows this weekend, a traditional rite of vetting that allows candidates to show off their surrogate skills. Booker, for the first time, did not deny he was being vetted by the Clinton campaign, which observers read as an implicit confirmation he's in the mix, while Perez's occasionally meandering, repetitive interview on NBC's "Meet the Press" raised doubts about his viability.
Trump Vetting Vice-Presidential Picks Just Weeks Ahead of Convention 1:50
But with just just over two weeks until Republicans kick off their national convention, the VP decision is most urgent for Trump, and two sources tell NBC News that he's is expected to announce his pick later next week. That's later than many initially expected, and runs right up against the start of the convention. But the thinking among Trump's advisers is to allow last week's rough news cycle for Clinton — which saw her sit for a three-and-a-half-hour meeting with the FBI over her use of a private email server as secretary of state — continue into next.
Still, there's certain to be lots of activity — and lots of attention — focused on Trump's pick, as he has yet to meet with former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, both believed to be at the top of his list, as well as a handful of other second-tier possibilities.
Trump will check another box on his list Tuesday when he campaigns in North Carolina, where NBC News has learned Tennessee Sen. Bob Corker will join Trump at his rally in Raleigh.
The first confirmed vice-presidential prospect to meet with Trump, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, recounted his meeting to reporters in Indiana this weekend.
"He was very interested in the progress of the state of Indiana as much as I was interested in his plans for the future," Pence said.
Pence, his wife and their daughter met with the presumptive GOP nominee and Melania Trump at Trump's golf course Saturday in New Jersey, where Pence said Trump "beat me like a drum" on the golf course. The Trumps "couldn't have been more kind and gracious," he added.
Beyond that, Pence offered few details, but notably wouldn't confirm whether he'd take the job if offered, saying only "I'm not gonna get into hypotheticals." Pence also repeatedly declined to comment on the controversial tweet Trump issued this weekend attacking Clinton, which featured a picture of a Star of David over a backdrop of $100 bills and appears to have gained traction on a white supremacist listserv.
The other potential VP picks who spoke out this weekend all downplayed their chances or seemed less than enthused about the presumptive GOP nominee. Cotton in fact declined to say why Trump is a better candidate than Clinton, saying that Trump "make the case for himself," despite Trump's tweet. Ernst's meeting with Trump was a "last-minute" surprise, according to a source close to the senator, and she said only in a statement that she had a "good" meeting with Trump where they discussed what she hears from Iowans on her travels. She said she plans to continue to "share my insights" with the candidate on the economy and national security.
And Gingrich, speaking at the Aspen Ideas Festival on Saturday, called all the chatter around his chances "wild speculation." Still, he proved a strong surrogate for Trump, touting the candidate's disruptive presence in the political sphere and telling NBC News that the fact Trump's being considerably outspent on the airwaves by Democrats won't be an issue for him.
Trump's pick will be closely watched, as many Republicans are hoping his vice president will not only help balance out the ticket politically but balance out Trump personally.
In addition to strengthening Trump's support in key swing states or among untapped demographic groups, skeptics are hoping he'll pick a candidate who can be a steady hand on the stump, one with strong conservative credentials and a long history with the GOP.
Ron Bonjean, a longtime GOP strategist, said Trump's efforts to build out a general election campaign in recent weeks have been encouraging but not enough to fully ease the concerns many Republicans still have with him.
"If he were to pick a vice president that is competent, has experience both in office and with the party and could relate to Americans, that would go a long way," he said.

Brexit: Britian Votes With Trump, Against Clinton and Obama

Hillary Behind Obama
AP
by Joel B. Pollak23 Jun 2016

Republican strategists had panned Trump’s decision to travel to the UK in the midst of campaign turmoil, and in the wake of his blistering attack on Hillary Clinton earlier this week.
Now, however, it looks like a risk that paid off handsomely, in the currency of foreign policy credibility.
Obama’s advice may have pushed some voters to “leave.” In April, he warned British voters they would be at the “back of the queue” in trade with the U.S. if they left the EU. Some, like Andrew Roberts, took offense, writing in the Wall Street Journal:
Surely—surely—this is an issue on which the British people, and they alone, have the right to decide, without the intervention of President Obama, who adopted his haughtiest professorial manner when lecturing us to stay in the EU, before making the naked threat that we would be sent “to the back of the queue” (i.e., the back of the line) in any future trade deals if we had the temerity to vote to leave.
Was my country at the back of the line when Winston Churchill promised in 1941 that in the event of a Japanese attack on the U.S., a British declaration of war on Japan would be made within the hour?
…
Were we at the back of the line on 9/11, or did we step forward immediately and instinctively as the very first of your allies to contribute troops to join you in the expulsion of the Taliban, al Qaeda’s hosts, from power in Afghanistan?
Or in Iraq two years later, was it the French or the Germans or the Belgians who stood and fought and bled beside you? Whatever views you might have over the rights or wrongs of that war, no one can deny that Britain was in its accustomed place: at the front of the line, in the firing line. So it is not right for President Obama now to threaten to send us to the back of the line.
Hillary Clinton also backed a “remain” vote in April, with a senior policy adviser issuing a statement on her behalf:
Hillary Clinton believes that transatlantic cooperation is essential, and that cooperation is strongest when Europe is united. She has always valued a strong United Kingdom in a strong EU. And she values a strong British voice in the EU.
Trump, who happens to be in Scotland to open a golf resort, promised in May that leaving the EU would not put Britain at the “back of the queue,” and said: “I think if I were from Britain I would probably want to go back to a different system.” He reiterated that support last week, telling the Sunday Times: “I would personally be more inclined to leave, for a lot of reasons like having a lot less bureaucracy. … But I am not a British citizen. This is just my opinion.

Omar Mateen's wife tried to talk him out of Orlando attack, Sources Say

The Orlando gunman's wife has told federal agents she tried to talk her husband out of carrying out the attack, NBC News has learned. Omar Mateen's current wife, Noor, told the FBI she was with him when he bought ammunition and a holster, several officials familiar with the case said. She told the FBI that she once drove him to the gay nightclub, Pulse, because he wanted to scope it out.
Mateen opened fire at Pulse early Sunday, leaving 49 dead and 53 injured. Twenty-seven victims remained hospitalized Tuesday. Six were in critical condition, according to hospital officials who said the death toll was still at risk of rising because one or two of those patients were "profoundly ill."
Authorities are considering filing criminal charges against Noor for failing to tell them what she knew before the brutal attack, law enforcement officials say, but no decision has been made.
Noor Mateen and Omar Mateen

She is cooperating with investigators, several officials say.
Mateen died in a shootout with police following the worst mass shooting in modern U.S. history — and the most deadly act of terror in the country since 9/11.
Mateen, 29, was born in New York to Afghan immigrants described by one family friend as loving, close-knit and "very respectful" of America. His clan ended up in Florida, where he attended Indian River State College in Fort Pierce, a two-hour drive south of Orlando. He graduated with an associate of science degree in criminal justice technology in 2006, and later got a job as a private security guard. He was fascinated with law enforcement, people who knew him said.
He was married twice, and was the father of a 3-year-old boy.

20 Killed In Shooting At Orlando Florida Nightclub "Terror Incident"


At least 20 people were killed, and many more were injured, in a mass shooting at an Orlando nightclub called Pulse early this morning (June 12). Reportedly, the shooter is dead after getting into a gunfight with local authorities. 
Reports the New York Times:
About 20 people were killed and at least 42 people were wounded when a gunman armed with an assault rifle and a handgun opened fire inside a downtown Orlando nightclub about 2 a.m., Police Chief John Mina said.
The police said they had classified the attack as a “terror incident.” The gunman was not from the Orlando area and was organized and well-prepared, they said.
The gunman was found dead inside the Pulse nightclub, one of the largest in Orlando, about 5 a.m. after a shootout with the police, Chief Mina said.
The chief said it was difficult to assess the number of clubgoers who were killed because, as of 7:15 a.m., many of the bodies had not been removed.
The shooting began inside the club, the chief said, and continued outside when an officer working at Pulse attempted to confront him. The gunman then went back into the club, resumed shooting and took hostages.
At 5 a.m., Chief Mina said, the police decided to rescue the hostages, detonating a “controlled explosion” to help clear the club. At least nine officers were involved in the shooting with the gunman. One of them was slightly injured, the authorities said.
The police called it a “mass casualty” event. The wounded were taken to three area hospitals.
According to the Mirror, Orlando police decided to storm Pulse, which is a gay nightclub, after the shooter took hostages.
What is going on in Orlando? On Friday (June 10), up and coming singer Christina Grimmie was shot and killed by a fan while signing  autographs after a show outside the Plaza Live Theater.
Prayers up to all those affected. #PrayForOrlando

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — A gunman wielding an assault-type rifle and a handgun took hostages and opened fire inside a crowded Florida nightclub, killing approximately 20 people and wounding 42 others before dying in a gunfight with SWAT officers, police said Sunday.
Police Chief John Mina also said the shooter had some sort of "suspicious device." He said the suspect exchanged gunfire with an officer working at the club around 2 a.m., then went back inside and took hostage

Around 5 a.m., authorities sent in a SWAT team to rescue the hostages, and the suspect then died in a gunfight with those officers. Mina said police have not determined an exact number of casualties, but that "approximately 20" people were dead inside the club.
Florida Department of Law Enforcement Special Agent in Charge Danny Banks said during a news conference that the mass shooting is being investigated as an act of terrorism. He says authorities are looking into whether this was an act of domestic or international terror, and if the shooter was a lone wolf.
"This is an incident, as I see it, that we certainly classify as domestic terror incident," said Orange County Sheriff Jerry Demings.
Police had said previously on Twitter that there was a "controlled explosion" at the scene of the shooting at Pulse Orlando. Mina said that noise was caused by a device intended to distract the shooter.
Mina Justice was outside the club early Sunday trying to contact her 30-year-old son Eddie, who texted her when the shooting happened and asked her to call police. He told her he ran into a bathroom with other club patrons to hide. He then texted her: "He's coming."
"The next text said: 'He has us, and he's in here with us,'" she said. "That was the last conversation."

Orlando Pulse Shooting
Dozens of police vehicles, including a SWAT team, swarmed the area around the club. At least two police pickup trucks were seen taking what appeared to be shooting victims to the Orlando Regional Medical Center.
Pulse Orlando posted on its own Facebook page around 2 a.m.: "Everyone get out of pulse and keep running." Just before 6 a.m., the club posted an update: "As soon as we have any information we will update everyone. Please keep everyone in your prayers as we work through this tragic event. Thank you for your thoughts and love."
Police said local, state and federal agencies were investigating.
The incident follows the fatal shooting late Friday of 22-year-old singer Christina Grimmie, who was killed after her concert in Orlando by a 27-year-old Florida man who later killed himself. Grimmie was a YouTube sensation and former contestant on "The Voice."
Jon Alamo said he was at the back of one of the club's rooms when a man holding a weapon came into the front of the room.
"I heard 20, 40, 50 shots," Alamo said. "The music stopped."
Club-goer Rob Rick said it happened around, 2 a.m., just before closing time.
"Everybody was drinking their last sip," he said.
He estimated more than 100 people were still inside when he heard shots, got on the ground and crawled toward a DJ booth. A bouncer knocked down a partition between the club area and an area in the back where only workers are allowed. People inside were able to then escape through the back of the club.
Christopher Hansen said he was in the VIP lounge when he started hearing gunshots. He continued to hear shooting even after he emerged, where police were telling people to back away from the club. He saw injured people being tended to across the street.
"I was thinking, are you kidding me? So I just dropped down. I just said please, please, please, I want to make it out," he said. "And when I did, I saw people shot. I saw blood. You hope and pray you don't get shot."
