Police are continuing to question a man arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after a car hit and injured seven people in Derby city centre.
Derbyshire Police said a black Suzuki Swift was driven into pedestrians in Friar Gate at about 21:30 GMT on Saturday.
Counter-terrorism police have joined the investigation but the Derbyshire force said this was “common practice for an incident of this nature” and officers were “keeping an open mind about the potential motives”.
Police described the suspect as a 36-year-old Derby man who is originally from India but who has lived in the UK for a number of years.
He is also being held on suspicion of causing serious injury through dangerous driving, inflicting grievous bodily harm with intent and dangerous driving. The incident is not currently being treated as terrorism and police said there was no ongoing risk to the public.
Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson told the BBC the home secretary was being kept updated on developments.
She said officers were on the scene “just seconds” after the vehicle collided with pedestrians and the suspect was arrested seven minutes later on a bridge that crosses over towards Pride Park.
Aldred said the vehicle was driven away from the scene and the swift action of officers would not have been possible without eyewitnesses who contacted police.
She also thanked members of the public who helped the victims and provided first aid.
The victims were seriously hurt but their injuries are not life-threatening.
Police also confirmed that “contrary to online speculation, no-one died in the incident”.
