Nice attacker posted a selfie moments before deadly attack
The Telegraph reported that moments before the deadly attack that left 84 people dead, Nice attacker, Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel, posted a selfie of himself and sent it to his family in Tunisia.
On Thursday night, Bouhlel got into a truck and mowed down several people who were celebrating the French holiday, Bastille.
Toufik Laoubi , a health care worker, told Al Jazeera that it was quite obvious that Bouhlel was trying to run over people.
Al Jazeera quoted Laoubi as saying, “The truck was zigzagging along the promenade to deliberately hit people. How can you do that?”
Laoubi told Al Jazeera that he was celebrating the holiday with his sister and the only thing that saved them was that a young man’s body got stuck behind one of the truck’s wheels, which forced Bouhlel to stop.
The Daily Mail reported that Bouhlel spent two days, Tuesday and Wednesday, scoping out the site.
There have been seven people, including a female, arrested in connection with the attack.
ISIS has claimed responsibility for the attack and is calling Bouhlel a “soldier of Islam.” However, due to Bouhlel’s criminal nature and hypersexual behavior, there are questions about whether he was a true Muslim.
Karim Taimiyyah , who says it’s a 10 minute drive from his home to Bouhlel’s home, told the Daily Beast that he thought ISIS was involved until he heard Bouhlel’s name.
The Daily Beast quoted Taimiyyah as saying, “He is not religious at all. He had a problem with his wife. They are in the middle of a divorce.
We thought it was DAESH (ISIS) too until his name was released.” The Telegraph reported that Bouhlel was a drug addict who often had sex with men and women.
And in 2004, his father was so worried about his son’s propensity for violence that he had a psychiatrist, Chamseddine Hamouda, to evaluate him.
According to The Telegraph , Hamouda told the BBC that although Bouhlel was violent when interacting with his family, there was nothing to suggest that he would “carry out such a horrific and bloody crime on this scale.”
The police killed Bouhlel after he opened fire upon them.
