On the evening of July 14, 2016, a crowd of approximately 30,000 people gathered along the waterfront of Nice, France to enjoy the fireworks display in celebration of Bastille Day. The driver of a large cargo truck, driving at speeds in excess of 50 mph, began purposely striking and killing pedestrians.

Two police officers were then able to shoot and kill the driver, but not before he had killed 86 people and injured 434.
