At least eight people have been killed and 11 seriously hurt in New York after the driver of a truck mowed down people on a cycle path in Lower Manhattan.

A 29‑year‑old man who emerged from the white pick‑up truck was shot by a police officer and arrested.

Officials later said it was a terror attack.

A note was found in the truck that referred to so‑called Islamic State, a law enforcement source told CBS News.
