Saipov NEW YORK (AP) A man in a rented pickup truck mowed down pedestrians and bicyclists along a busy bike path near the World Trade Center memorial Tuesday, killing at least eight and injuring 11 others in what the mayor called “a particularly cowardly act of terror.” The 29-year-old driver was shot in the abdomen by police and taken into custody after jumping out of the truck with what turned out to be a fake gun in each hand and shouting “Allahu Akbar!” officials said. His condition was not immediately released. The suspect was identified as Sayfullo H. Saipov, 29, of Tampa, CBS News reports. Sources tell CBS News the suspect in today's NYC terror attack is 29-year-old Sayfullo H. Saipov. — Steven Portnoy (@stevenportnoy) October 31, 2017 Submit Copyright ©2023 Fort Myers Broadcasting.
