The driver who killed eight pedestrians and injured at least a dozen people, including two children, when he barreled down a New York City bike path in a rented pickup truck has been identified as Sayfullo Saipov, law enforcement officials told the Associated Press.
Saipov, 29, was taken into custody following the attack, during which he drove a rented Home Depot pickup truck 20 blocks down a bike path that goes along the Hudson River in Lower Manhattan.
After hitting numerous pedestrians and bicyclists, Saipov struck a school bus.
He then exited the truck with a paintball gun and pellet gun, and shouted, “Allahu akbar,” a law enforcement official told the Associated Press. The phrase means “God is great” in Arabic.
Saipov was shot by a police officer, taken into custody and transported to a local hospital.
Law enforcement officials told the AP Saipov is in surgery and is expected to survive. Authorities said there were no other suspects.
Court records indicate Saipov had an address in Tampa, Fl., and may have also identified as Fayfullo Faipov at one point. The AP reports that he may have been living in New Jersey.
New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio called the incident an act of terror during a press conference Tuesday. “This was an act of terror and particularly cowardly act of terror,” he said.

Press release for the launch of the New Charles Martel
We are a group of French people who can not stand anymore Islam, its crimes, its intolerance and its contempt for France and the French people.
In a European context (Austria, Germany, Czech Republic, Holland, etc.) and even Western (USA) favorable to our ideas, we launch the New Charles Martel so that the French people can reconquer their territory, their culture and their honor. And in doing so, inspire other Western peoples to do the same, in coordination with us.
Here is our first videos where we announce our creation, our objectives and our methods. The urgency of the European situation in general and French in particular guides our radical choices.
Every day, we will publish a video, in French and in English, where we will present our point of view, and we will encourage concrete action for our compatriots and our friends abroad.
This October 25th, 2017 will not be only an anniversary of the Battle of Poitiers, it will also be the day the French reconquest was launched!
Honor and fatherland !
The New Charles Martel

The latest terror attack was mounted by a Muslim from Uzbekistan who was awarded a diversity visa green card.
I support a total ban on Muslim migration to U.S. soil for purposes of residency. I am sickened by the propensity for ambushing the innocent.
Total ban. No apology.
