Could be that he just lost the plot and decided to use the car as a battering ram to get away. Whatever the reason he needs serious prison time.

From today's press conference, the road block was temporarily lifted to let an ambulance through.
The driver's been charged with attempted murder so I'm sure he'll get serious time in prison.
Good to hear that the 11 still in hospital are in a stable condition and appear to be recovering well.

It is believed the driver of the Ford Galaxy car involved in this incident was able to follow an ambulance onto Water Street after the road block was temporarily lifted so that the ambulance crew could attend to a member of the public who was having a suspected heart attack.
“As with many large events, with event organisers we planned for all contingencies and this included the implementation of road closures to protect pedestrians and an armed policing presence was also in place throughout the day."
