Italian leaders visit Modena after car-ramming attack
Prosecutors are investigating the attack as attempted massacre and personal injury after eight people were injured, four seriously, officials said.
- Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and President Sergio Mattarella travelled to Modena on Sunday, a day after a car-ramming incident injured eight people; Meloni cancelled a planned trip to Nicosia to visit the site.
- Salim El Koudri drove a car into pedestrians in the crowded city center on Saturday, injuring eight people, four seriously, before police arrested him as he reportedly attempted to stab a passerby.
- Modena prosecutors stated the suspect is under investigation for attempted massacre and personal injury, describing the attack as occurring "in an indiscriminate, random and deliberate manner." Two victims lost their legs.
- Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini, who leads the League party, called on Sunday for the revocation of residence permits for those who commit crimes as authorities seek to establish El Koudri's motives.
- Vehicle attacks against crowds have become increasingly common worldwide, yet prosecutors have not confirmed reports regarding the suspect's mental health history or the nationalities of the injured, continuing their investigation.
