A French court convicted eight people over the 2016 terror attack in
Nice, when a man plowed a truck through a crowd celebrating Bastille
Day, killing 86 people and injuring hundreds. The driver, Mohamed
Lahouaiej-Bouhlel, was shot dead on the scene by police. The other men
convicted Tuesday for helping the mass killer received prison terms
