Six people killed as car crashes into carnival in Belgium
The Guardian says a car drove at high speed into a group of Belgian carnival performers who were preparing a parade early on Sunday, killing six people and seriously injuring 10 others, authorities have said, adding that the incident did not appear to be a militant attack.
“At this stage, there are no elements to suggest that the attack had a terrorist motive,” the prosecutor Damien Verheyen told a news conference. Police denied media reports that the car was involved in a high-speed chase.
The incident occurred in the southern Belgium village of Strépy-Bracquegnies at about 4am GMT.
