"A driver rammed into pedestrians and cyclists on France's tourist-frequented Ile d'Oleron off the Atlantic coast on Wednesday, injuring several people including four seriously, authorities said. The 35-year-old driver was arrested by police and an investigation has been opened, the interior minister, Laurent Nunez, said in a post on X. The man, a resident of the island, had deliberately hit several pedestrians and cyclists along a main road, prosecutor Arnaud Laraize said."

France's anti-terrorism prosecutor's office has not been put in charge of the inquiry, local media reported. The prosecutor's office could not immediately be reached for comment.
