ISIS claims that one of its soldiers carried the attack for the Nice terror attack which left 84 dead and dozens wounded. Investigators also believe the attacker, 31 year old Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel,
was quickly radicalized by the terror group.
The man who used a 20-ton truck to plow down hundreds of people in Nice this week, killing 84, somehow became radicalized very quickly and hadn't even yet shown up on any anti-terrorist intelligence radar, French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said.
Earlier Saturday, a statement from ISIS' media group, Amaq Agency, said that an ISIS "soldier" carried out the attack in Nice.The group referred to Bouhlel as a "soldier", but never mentioned his actual name.
The statement, which was posted by ISIS supporters, said a security source told the agency that "the person who carried out the run over in Nice, France, is one of the Islamic State soldiers and carried out the operation in response to calls to target nationals of the coalition which is fighting the Islamic State."
