At least eight people were killed and more were injured when a truck driver deliberately mowed down people and targeted a school bus in lower Manhattan Tuesday in what authorities are investigating as an act of terror, officials tell News 4 New York.

More than a dozen people were hit when the driver of a Home Depot rental truck zoomed at least 10 blocks down a popular bike path from West Houston to Chambers streets, authorities said.

The driver then deliberately crashed into a school bus carrying three children, police said; witnesses told police they saw the driver swerve the truck to target the bus. They said the driver screamed "Allah' akbar" in the truck, then emerged carrying two fake guns -- either BB or paint guns -- and started running around be

NEW YORK ? Police and witnesses say a man deliberately drove a rented truck onto a busy bicycle path near the World Trade Center in lower Manhattan, killing eight people and seriously injuring 11 others, then emerged from the vehicle screaming and brandishing imitation firearms before he was shot by police. The suspect was wounded and taken into custody.

?This was an act of terror, and a particularly cowardly act of terror aimed at innocent civilians,? Mayor Bill de Blasio said. He called it ?a very painful day in our city.?

?Today there was a loss of innocent life in lower Manhattan,? NYPD commissioner James O?Neill said at a Tuesday press conference.
