Nice attack: Two people arrested by French police

18 minutes ago

From the section Europe

A man and a woman have been arrested in Nice in connection with the Bastille Day lorry attack, French judicial sources have said.

More than 80 people died when a Tunisian man, Mohamed Lahouaiej-Bouhlel, ploughed the vehicle into celebrating crowds on Thursday evening.

Earlier, France called up 12,000 police reservists to help boost security in the wake of the attack.
