away the body of the one victim who was killed in this ramming attack that took place earlier this evening here, and you re absolutely right. it s right on the promenade here in television, and there s some social media video out there of that car that you see there as well. that s now laying there overturned just racing down that promenade at some point, getting off course and then flipping over several times before just coming down on its roof, the latest that we have from the authorities here is that there are seven people who were injured in this four of them being tourists. three as you mentioned come from the united kingdom, and one is from italy. some of them are moderately injured and some of them lightly injured. some actually tried to flee to a hotel in the area to seek help. but as you can see, this is a wide cordon here now in the center of till aviv. there s a lot of ambulances. obviously a lot of police cars here as investigators are obviously still working the
Africanamerican voters and also africanamerican candidates .
