Man shouting 'God is great' goes on car rampage through French city

Security measures for police and other authorities have been stepped up after a driver said to be shouting “God is great” slammed into crowds in a French city, injuring at least 11 people and raising national concern as Islamic extremists call for attacks.

The government said the man’s motives were unclear but last night’s incident in Dijon, in eastern France, came a day after a knife attack on police in another town being investigated by anti-terror officers.
