A witness gave an account of what happened at the scene:

“All we see is this truck along the boardwalk, just ploughing through people, just bodies getting hit and people running in all directions,” Tony Molina, who witnessed the attack from his apartment, tells CNN.

“We watched in disbelief.”

He added that following the crash, there was a “barrage of gunfire.”

“There were families just laying down, crying next to these bodies. Then they had to clear the area out. The bodies say there covered up.” 

Earlier reports said that 77 people had been killed. Recent reports from the French Interior Ministry have cited that the death toll from the attack in Nice has risen to 84.
