Spanish police 'stop second attack'

Spanish police say they have killed several people in Cambrils to stop what they say was a second attempted attack after a car attack in Barcelona.

Police warned people to stay off the streets, with shots reported in the port of Cambrils.

Thirteen people died and dozens were injured when a van ploughed into crowds in Barcelona's Las Ramblas area on Thursday afternoon.

Spain's Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy said it was a "jihadist attack".

Las Ramblas van driver remains at large

The hunt continues for the driver of the van who killed 13 people in Las Ramblas and injured 100 more.

The Catalan interior minister, Joaquim Forn, said on Friday morning that the Barcelonaattacker remains at large.

Police shot dead five other suspects in Cambrils after a second terror attack in the early hours of Friday morning. Authorities say the two attacks are linked.

Forn told local radio RAC1 early Friday:

[It] follows the same trail. There is a connection.

Both are also being linked to an explosion in Alcanar, around 200km from Barcelona and 90km from Cambrils, which destroyed a house, killing one person. Police say the property was being used to prepare explosives.
