  "account": "A man driving a car into a group of people in Caen, France, on August 26th killed one person and injured 10 others before being apprehended, according to multiple sources. The incident occurred around 10.15pm local time (4.15am Singapore time) in the city center, near the train station. Police believe the attack was motivated by a fight and not terrorism, as stated by the deputy prosecutor. The suspect, a 26-year-old Russian-born man with a history of traffic offenses, initially fled the scene but was later caught in Ouistreham, approximately 20km away. Seven victims are in critical condition, while three sustained minor injuries. All victims appeared to be men aged 17 to 40. Police have opened an investigation into charges of murder and aggravated assault, with the motive still under investigation.",
