A white rental van jumped onto a pedestrian walkway in Barcelona, Spain on Thursday killing at least 13.

Just after 5 pm local time, a large white van moved on to a pedestrian walkway in the tourist La Rambla area and into a crowd of people.

At least 13 people have been confirmed dead in the attack and at least one gunman is reported to be holding hostages in a nearby bar.

Video has surfaced that appears to show some hostages leaving the bar with their hands above their heads.

The driver of the van escaped on foot and police are still looking for him.

Authorities are treating this as a terrorist attack.

Some reports say that a second van, believed to be involved in the attack, was found 40 miles away.

Local media is reporting that a passport was found in the van that was abandoned at the scene.
