CLEMSON – Clemson basketball players Donte Grantham and Mark Donnal were walking up La Ramblas, one of Barcelona’s most popular tourist spots, headed back to the team hotel after a round of buying souvenirs. What happened next will be forever burned into Grantham’s memory.
A white van crashed into a packed summer crowd in the historic Las Ramblas district Thursday afternoon, an attack in which at least 13 people were killed and more than 100 were injured. Grantham and Donnal were trying to making it back to the hotel so they could leave for that evening’s game when he thought he heard gunshots.
