New Delhi, Nov 1 (IBNS): Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday condemned the US truck attack that killed at least eight people and injured 11 others.

"Strongly condemn the terror attack in New York City. My thoughts are with the families of the deceased & prayers with those injured," the Prime Minister's tweet read.

The incident took place in New York's Lower Manhattan area.

Officials have termed it a terror attack and said that a man has been nabbed.

The arrested man has been identified as 29-years-old Sayfullo Saipov, an immigrant who came to the US in 2010.

Reports quoted witnesses as saying that he shouted Allahu Akbar before killing the pedestrians.
