I spent a year of college in Nice

We used to go down to the Promenade des Anglais with leftover bread from the student cafeteria and almost get the wits scared out of us when the seagulls, which are really quite large birds, swooped down for their snack.  Tonight, it was a large truck that went swooping down on the Promenade, terrifying people into running for their lives as they realized that the driver was intent on murder. Terrorism strikes France, and the world, yet again.  :(
