Crowd hit by cars tonight in Belgium. Four dead. Attack or accident?

Early this morning, at 5am, a high-speed car rushed into the carnival court in the Belgian city of La Louvière, in Wallonia . This act resulted in four deaths, 12 seriously injured and twenty lightly injured. The authorities immediately converted the town's gym into an emergency center. The investor then tried to escape, but was chased and arrested by the authorities.

The reasons for the gesture are not known and the authorities have not revealed any news about the driver. It is not known whether it is an accident or a much more dangerous attack. Belgium had been at the center of investigations into the attacks in France in 2015 and there were also bombings against the Brussels metro. An attack at a time of high international social tension such as the present would be extremely dangerous.

The carnival was held these days as it was delayed to comply with the lockdown rules, which had only ceased since the 4th of March. Previously, organizing public demonstrations with popular participation would have been too complex.
