10 injured after driver ploughs into French Christmas market

At least ten people were injured Monday, two seriously, when the driver of a van ploughed into a Christmas market in the western French city of Nantes before stabbing himself, a source close to the investigation said.
The source said the driver, who was born in 1970, then stabbed himself "at least nine times", causing himself serious injuries.
The motives for the attack were unclear but did not appear to be driven by religious extremism.
"As things stand, we have no account pointing to any religious demands," said the source.
The incident comes a day after a man shouting "Allahu Akbar" ran his car into pedestrians in the eastern city of Dijon, injuring 13. The driver in that case was suffering from a severe psychological disorder, a local prosecutor said.
Monday's attack in central Nantes took place at around 7:00 pm (1800 GMT).
The driver charged at a chalet serving hot wine in front of which several people were gathered, a witness told AFP.
