Nice-Normally, the daughter of Isabelle Lapadu not on walking Street. Too dangerous. But yesterday after the fireworks for France's national holiday, it could. The Promenade des Anglais in Nice was totally dropped off for cars.

,, We had walked a hundred meters, and we saw a white truck to get away, "said Lapadu. ,, People ran away, but the truck drove by several people. I heard no screams, just the horrible sound of people who were hit, "plop, plop, plop." We have heard no shots. "

The family ran toward a museum with a garden. ,, We are four of us stayed together, but we did not know what to do. We could not get out through the back, then turned back again. When we heard people that there was a fire. Eventually we were allowed to take refuge in an apartment building in humans. "

The panic was impressive, says the Dutch. ,, We have seen fortunately no casualties. "

Earlier that week Lapadu looked at her daughter with a poster in a garage, "what to do in a terrorist attack?". ,, We do not know in the Netherlands. We made a joke about and read what to do in such a case, not knowing that we would need it so fast. "

On Twitter last night began a massive search for missing people. Parents, children, friends and relatives posted photos of loved ones who were watching the fireworks, and then were no longer accessible. The patience of those who put the heartbreaking Oproepjes online, is likely to put to the test: around two-thirty tonight the southern French coastal city was still in turmoil.
