Footage shows the moments truck rammed into crowd in Nice, France killing 73 and injuring 120.#NiceAttack pic.twitter.com/SF2vWAJbQO

The truck came out of nowhere, said Northern Irishman Paddy Mullan, who was on vacation in Nice with his girlfriend.

It mounted the sidewalk, he told the BBC, adding that all you could hear was banging and shouting and screaming.

There was a lot of confusion, misdirection, because we didnt know what exactly what was happening, why it was happening, Mullan said.

The driver swerved the truck from side to side for over a mile in an apparent attempt to kill as many people as possible, according to multiple reports.

"It's really sad when you've been marked safe twice on Facebook in the last week." Dallas woman in Nice speaks @ 10 pic.twitter.com/eoFElv423x

Jeff Paul (@Jeff_Journalist) July 15, 2016

Dallas woman Kristen Crouch, visiting Nice for a friends wedding, had to take cover in a nearby apartment during the rampage. She had been in the Texas city after a sniper shot and killed five police officers last week.

I heard like two pops. I thought it was fireworks and then didnt think anything of it but all sudden all these people were running in the opposite direction speaking in French and screaming, Crouch told KTVT.

Its really sad when youve been marked safe twice on Facebook in the last week. We shouldnt live in a world like that, she added.

Witnessing what happen is something I will never forget. I'm so sorry to all those families that have lost loved ones #Nice06 #PrayForFrance

Witnessing what happen is something I will never forget. I'm so sorry to all those families that have lost loved ones #Nice06 #PrayForFrance

I saw bodies flying like bowling pins along its route, Damien Allemand, a journalist with local newspaper Nice Matin, wrote in a Medium post.

Heard noises, cries that I will never forget.

The truck eventually came to a stop and the driver emerged from the vehicle with a weapon. Police shot him dead. Its unclear whether he had an accomplice, authorities said Friday morning.
