A vehicle plowed into more than a dozen terrified pedestrians in Australia on Thursday, in what police called a "deliberate" and "cowardly" act. Two people were arrested at the chaotic scene, which was packed with holiday shoppers in Melbourne's central business district. A young child was among the injured, authorities said. "This is horrific. It's evil," Victoria Premier Daniel Andrews said. "We are not defined by these sorts of incidents."
The driver of the white Suzuki SUV was arrested on the scene. Victoria Police identified him as a 32-year-old Australian of Afghan descent. Police said the man has a history of drug abuse and mental health issues.
