After driving at high speed into crowds on the city's famous avenue Las Ramblas last Thursday Cheap Nike Vandal High , killing 13 people, the suspected Islamist militant fled on foot and then hijacked the car as it was being parked, stabbing the driver to
death, police said.
The suspect, Moroccan-born Younes Abouyaaqoub, 22 Cheap Nike Dynasty Hi 17 TC , then drove the hijacked car through a police checkpoint, police said. It was later found abandoned, with the man's body
inside.
Spanish magistrates have sought a Europe-wide arrest warrant for Abouyaaqoub, a judicial source said. Police say he may have crossed the border into France,
amid fragments of evidence that appear to link the Barcelona attack's plotters
to the country.
"We have no evidence that he crossed the border, we don't think it would have been easy but we cannot rule out that he didn't cross any border Cheap Nike PG 2 ," Josep Lluis Trapero, head of regional police in Catalonia, told a news conference.
Abouyaaqoub is the only one of 12 men who is still at large. His mother, Hannou Ghanimi, appealed at the weekend for her son to give himself, saying she
would rather see him in prison than end up dead.
Four people have been arrested so far in connection with the attacks: three Moroccans and a citizen of Spain's North African enclave of Melilla. They will
be taken to the high court in Madrid Cheap Nike Air Humara , which has jurisdiction over terrorism matters
Abouyaaqoub lived in Ripoll, a town north of Barcelona, close to French border.
Islamic State claimed responsibility for the Barcelona attack as well as a separate deadly attack hours later in the coastal resort town of Cambrils, south
of Barcelona.
In Cambrils, a car crashed into passers-by and its occupants got out and tried to stab people. Five suspects were shot dead, while a Spanish woman died
in the attack.
In the roughly seven hours of violence that followed the van's entry into the pedestrian boulevard of Las Ramblas on Thursday afternoon Cheap Nike Air Foamposite One , attackers killed 15 people: 13 on Las Ramblas, the Cambrils victim and the man in the hijacked car.
Of the 120 injured on Las Ramblas, nine are still in a critical condition in hospital.
Another two suspected plotters, including an imam thought by police to have helped radicalize his young conspirators, were killed late on Wednesday night,
hours before the attacks began Cheap Nike Hyperadapt 1.0 , in what is believed to have been an accidental explosion.
Police chief Trapero said there was now "solid evidence" that the imam, Abdelbaki Es Satty, was killed in the blast at a house in the town of Alcanar,
south of Barcelona.
About 120 butane gas cylinders were found there. Police believe the pair was preparing a much larger attack with explosives, but the blast prompted the other
militants to adopt a new, less elaborate plan.
Abouyaaqoub began showing more religiously conservative behavior within the past year Cheap Nike Air More Money , according to family members in his native Morocco. He refused to shake hands with women during a visit to his birthplace in March,
they said.
Abouyaaqoub's brother El Houssaine and first cousins Mohamed and Omar Hychami were among those killed by police in Cambrils. They were all originally from the
small Moroccan town of Mrirt.
Authorities have stepped up checks at Spain's borders and also raided more homes overnight in Ripoll, a town close to France where many of the suspects in
the 12-strong cell had lived.
Spanish political leaders from all the main parties met on Monday to review security measures as part of cross-party efforts to unite on anti-terrorist
efforts, though no immediate decision was taken at the meeting.
A manhunt was underway for the driver of a van that mowed through crowds of tourists on Barcelona's most famous avenue on Thursday, killing at least 13
people in an attack that was claimed by Islamic State.
Authorities said the death toll could rise, with more than 100 people injured Cheap Nike Zoom VaporFly , some seriously.
Authorities say they have arrested two suspecrts after Thursday's van attack in Barcelona
Police said they arrested two men, a Moroccan and a man from Spain's north African enclave of Melilla, though neither was the driver. Witnesses said the
driver fled on foot.
It was still not clear how many attackers had been involved.
Hours beforehand, one person was killed in an explosion in a house about 100 km (62 miles) southwest of Barcelona, in an incident linked to the attack,
police added. Residents of the house were preparing explosives Cheap Nike Odyssey React Mens , a Catalan police source said.
In another incident, police shot dead a man who had driven a car into a police checkpoint in Barcelona, though they had no evidence he was connected
with the van attack.
Witnesses said the white van zigzagged at high speed down Las Ramblas, a busy avenue thronged with tourists, ramming pedestrians and cyclists, sending some
hurtling through the air and leaving bodies strewn across the ground.
Islamic State's Amaq news agency said: "The perpetrators of the Barcelona attack are soldiers of the Islamic State and carried out the operation in
response to calls for targeting coalition states" - a reference to a U.S.-led
coalition against the Sunni militant group.
Spain has several hundred soldiers in Iraq providing training to local forces in the fight against Islamic State Cheap Nike Odyssey React Womens , but they are not involved in ground operations.
The Islamic State claim could not immediately be verified.
If the involvement of Islamist militants is confirmed, it would be the latest in a string of attacks in the past 13 months in which they have used vehicles to
bring carnage to the streets of European cities.
