Good evening, and its great to have you with us here on a very busy thursday night, and we begin tonight with the horrific scene playing out in barcelona in an historic shopping district where many tourists visit. A driver jumping the curb and his van barrelling through the crowd. Children believed to be among the victims tonight. So many images we cannot show here. The death toll, more than a dozen people dead, can the authorities warning that could go higher. More than 100 injured at this hour, and heres the van afterwards. It was going at speeds up to 50 miles per hour. One suspect dead, two in custody, and the urgent manhunt for others. Abcs James Longman leading us off from barcelona. [ sirens ] reporter tonight, a trail of in the heart of barcelona. The dead and injured lining the streets. First responders racing to the scene. Around 5 30 afternoon local time, police say this white van jumped onto a packed city sidewalk and began mowing down pedestrians. Swerving side to side at what witnesses guessed was 50 miles an hour, that speed, bringing chaos and carnage. I heard screams of people and when i looked up saw the white van and just knocking people over at high speed. Reporter the van careening down this path in red for more than 1,000 feet. Before coming to a halt. We saw a lot of people running to the right of the restaurant, just running down the road or running from something and saw a couple of people hunched over a body on the floor. Reporter at least 13 killed and about 100 injured. Crowds running in panic, fleeing this store. Come on. Come on. Just come with me. Reporter looking for a safe place to hide. Mayhem. Parents holding their children tight. Crowds streaming down main streets and back alleys. Many hiding in cafes. Somebody was screaming and everybody started to run, and there was screaming from behind, and everybody just ran forward. Reporter you can make out the clothes discarded. Heres where the truck came plowing down the street. Historic las ramblas, popular with tourists shut down. Shops and resturnats closed as heavily armed police with guns drawn sweep the streets, searching for suspects. Police later announcing the arrest of two suspects, including this man who they say rented that white van this week, but said he was not the driver. They say a third suspect was killed. And James Longman joins us from the point where that van entered the pedestrian path, and james tonight, isis is claiming responsibility . Reporter thats right, david. And just in the last few moments, we have heard the spanish Prime Minister call this jihadist terrorism. Often with these isis attacks, there are other people involved and we have been watching groups of civilians being escorted by police out of here, because police want to make sure there are no other terrorists lying in wait. James longman. Thank you. As james mentioned, one terror suspect is dead tonight, two in custody, and there is an urgent manhunt for possible accomplices. One of the men in custody, a 28yearold accused of renting the van used in that attack. Tonight, did they have help and is this over . Abcs chief investigative correspondent, brian ross. Reporter police tonight are calling the 28year old moroccanborn Driss Oukabir one of three suspected terrorists whose activities they are right now trying to unravel. Authorities say he recently traveled to morocco, arriving back in spain just last sunday, and then rented the van used in the attack. But police say he was not behind the wheel today. Oukabir is now in custody along with a second suspect and Authorities Say a third man was shot and killed after running a police roadblock. Driss oukabirs Facebook Page shows him as a skinny kid at the beach, listening to rap music. And he recently shared this antisemitic video in praise of the nazis described as true heroes. The barcelona attack comes straight out of the isis playbook. The terrorist group has urged its followers to carry out similar vehicle attacks, even providing details on the kinds of trucks to use. In nice, france, last year. 86 People Killed by a speeding truck on bastille day. In berlin, 11 were killed in a vehicle attack on the Christmas Markets last year, and in london, 1 the people were killed in two separate attacks this year. On the Westminster Bridge and then the london bridge. As isis suffers more defeats in iraq and syria, we can only expect to see more attacks. Reporter late today, isis took responsibility for the deadly barcelona attack, calling those involved soldiers of the islamic state. And brian ross with us here tonight. Brian reported there were two suspects in custody. One dead, but authorities still believe the driver could be on the loose . Yes. They are looking for at least two more people, and in another twist, the authorities believe the man what rented the van, someone stole his license and he is not involved in any way. He claims a stolen identity. Thats right. Thank you. Back at home and police on high alert tonights amid the calls from isis to use vehicles in attacks. Authorities in major stips in this country already with precautions in place, and abcs linsey davis is live in New York Times squarer us. Reporter counterterrorism expert. S tell abc news they are on high alert and they are prepared to respond immediately in the event of a possible copycat. This area knows the dangers all too well, and after all, it was just this past may when a car plowed right through the heart of times square. One of the busiest intersections in the world. That was not terrorism, but the attack could have been much worse had it not been for one of these barriers. The car slammed right into one of those, otherwise, the casualty count could have been much higher. Linsey davis in times square for us. Thank you. President trump this even, condemning the terror attack offering to do whatever is necessary to help. While here it a em ho, there is new fallout after charlottesville.

Heres abcs senior white house correspondent, cecilia vega tonight. Reporter President Trump under mounting fire for his leadership in the wake of charlottesville, waiting 48 hours to condemn the white supremacist groups by name, and then defending some of people who marched with torches. You had some very bad people in that group. But you also had people that were fine people on both sides. Reporter today, he did not back down, taking to twitter to mourn the loss of confederate statues. Sad to see the history and culture of our great country being ripped apart with the removal of our beautiful statues and monuments. You cant change history, but you can learn from it, so foolish so, this week its robert e. Lee, i notice that Stonewall Jackson is coming down. I wonder, is it George Washington next week . Is it Thomas Jefferson the week after . You have to ask yourself, where does it stop . Reporter its not the first time President Trump has shown affection for confederate generals. In 20 and 13, he lavished praise on robert e. Lee. In the old days we had generals like patton and robert e. Lee. And we had some great ones. General Douglass Mcarthur grant. They must be just spinning in their graves when they see what happened. Reporter but around the country scenes like this, confederate monuments coming down. In durham, north carolina, protesters tore down one statue. In the dead of night in baltimore, construction crews hauled away four others and now in washington, a debate raging over the future of 12 statues of confederate leaders like Jefferson Davis on prominent display inside the u. S. Capitol. This as the president s words alarm many top republicans. Sources close to Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell describe him as very concerned and very upset. Mcconnells Office Denies that, but in tennessee, republican bob corker delivered a stinging rebuke to the president. He also recently has not demonstrated that he understands the character of this nation. Reporter corker calling for radical change in the trump white house, saying without it, the nation will go through great peril telling the president to stop focusing on himself and think about the american people. I think our president needs to take stock of the role that he plays in our nation and move beyond himself. Move way beyond himself. Reporter and today, the senates only africanamerican republican tim scott, echoing that call. What we want to see from our president is clarity and moral authority. That moral authority is compromised when tuesday happens. Theres no question about that.

The white house saying today, it will not move forward, and frankly, this is a group that hadnt even really gotten off the ground. You mentioned it.
