A tragic incident unfolded in Caen, France, when an unknown driver rammed a car into a crowd of pedestrians near the main train station, killing two people and leaving 10 others wounded.
Police spokesman David Clavière told reporters the vehicle deliberately drove into the crowd, and seven of those injured were in critical condition.
Authorities arrested a 26‑year‑old suspect of Russian origin near the port town of Ouistreham, 20 km from Caen.
Witnesses reported a brawl between two groups that erupted before the attack, though local officials say there is currently no evidence of a terrorist motive.
The incident is under investigation by Caen's Specialized Crime Division, with detectives tracing CCTV footage that captured the vehicle’s movements.
Several injured victims were taken to the emergency ward of a nearby hospital as police cordoned off the area and tended to the scene.
