The suspect, a 29-year-old man, deliberately drove a pickup truck into a bike path and struck several people in Lower Manhattan that afternoon, before getting out with imitation firearms. He was shot by police before taken into custody. At least eight people are dead and more than a dozen were injured.

"Devastated for the victims and their families tonight & inspired by the spirit of this city. Sirens and trick or treaters everywhere," Groban tweeted after hearing about the victims.
