TRUMP: VETTING TO BE STEPPED UP AFTER NYC ATTACK

US President Donald Trump says he's ordered extreme vetting measures to be stepped up after the terror attack in New York.

A 29 year-old man was shot by police after driving a truck into people in Lower Manhattan, killing 8 and injuring 11.

Officials say it was a terror attack, which makes it the deadliest in New York since 9/11.
