A van ploughed into the people in Barcelona yesterday which left 13 people dead and injured nearly 100.
The assailant’s whereabouts were still unknown as of early Friday local time in what the Spanish Police suspect was one of multiple planned attacks.
Islamic State had claimed responsibility for the deadly rampage along the city's most famous avenue, which was packed with tourists taking an afternoon stroll.
Security forces hunted for the suspect, who was seen escaping on foot.
Media reports said the Police had killed five attackers last night in Cambrils, a town south of Barcelona, to thwart further terrorist attacks using explosive belts.
