The facts happened in front of a migrant shelter in Texas.
At least seven people were killed and a dozen others injured Sunday when a car drove into pedestrians in Brownsville, Texas, local television stations reported. A man was arrested, according to the press.
A video filmed the scene and the images are unbearable. We see the people who have been along the road and some who are sitting on the edge of the sidewalk, literally mowed down by a Range Rower car.
