Reports are that the truck struck people at different locations in Brooklyn. The truck has been stopped and the driver is in custody, however, NYPD still checking the truck to make sure it presents no additional threat.

Unconfirmed reports that this could be an act of terrorism.

Edit: WABC reporting that the truck was cleared by the Bomb Squad.

I don't know what the article said when first posted, but it's been updated and does not include any rumors of terrorism.

TL;DR - apparently, a suicidal person got behind the wheel of his motorhome, i.e., a rental truck, and intentionally struck people while in a possibly altered mental state
