Spanish police said Sunday that they believed that Younes Abouyaaqoub, the 22-year-old Moroccan-born man media identified as the suspected driver of the van that mowed down pedestrians in Barcelona last week, could have crossed the border into France since the attack. "We don't have any specific information on this but it cannot be ruled out," Catalan police chief Josep Lluis Trapero said, although he said he could not confirm who was behind the wheel during the attack, which left 13 dead and scores more wounded. Spanish police set up 800 checkpoints across the Catalonia region and along the French border on Sunday as they searched for Abouyaaqoub and other suspects, who reportedly had planned to attack the iconic Sagrada Familia cathedral. The Islamic State has claimed responsibility for the attack.
