(CNN)Canadian authorities say two incidents in Edmonton are being investigated as acts of terrorism after a man struck a police officer with a car before stabbing him and later plowed a truck into pedestrians on a busy street, injuring at least four people.

In a Sunday afternoon press conference, authorities said the suspect is a male Somali national and refugee who was previously known to Edmonton police and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP).
Police have arrested the suspect for several offenses, including participation in a terrorist act and the commission of an offense for a terrorist group, said Chief Rod Knecht of the Edmonton Police Service.

holy crap! My thoughts are with the victims and I hope the suspect gets what he deserves.

Somalian National strikes people with car, no deaths = Terrorist attack
White man killing 50 and injuring 250 = Not a terrorist attack.

maybe the ISIS flag found in his car and years of radicalization had something to do with it?
