Driver Responsible For Dutch Tragedy Dies

Netherlands-- The man responsible for the deadly crash during the Queen's Day celebration in the Netherlands on Thursday has died.

Before his death, the driver was charged with attempting to attack the royal family along with taking the lives of four people at the parade and injuring 12 others.

The driver plowed through police barriers set up to protect Crown Prince Willem-Alexander and Princess Maxima during their procession in the annual Queen's Day celebration. He sent innocent observers "flying through the air" before being ejected from the vehicle himself.

Awful.

Police still have no leads on the man's motive for causing Thursday's horrendous accident.
