WTF?! Whatever happened there?! The car looked in the same state before it hit the monument as it did after!! Must have hit something hard off screen then rolled through the crowd?!

It has been confirmed that it was a deliberate attempt targetting the royal family.

The suspect is thought to be either irish or Belgium...because a Suzuki Swift was used rather than a Jeep Cherokee!?

By now 5 dead.

Suspect is in hospital and has been operated on but is now apperantly braindead so questioning will be hard I guess.

He did admit to deliberatly trying to harm the royal family whilst still in the wreck.

It has been confirmed that the same man & car was stopped by the police earlier on the same day!

Somehow he managed to gain access to the road... :/
