By Angela Dewan, CNN
(CNN) -- The Spanish region of Catalonia has been rattled by two terror attacks and an explosion over three days, in what authorities are treating as a trio of linked incidents.
Three men have been arrested, but the driver of the deadliest attack -- a van ramming in Barcelona, which killed 14 people-- is still at large.
Of the men arrested, one is Moroccan and another is from Spain's North African enclave of Melilla, Reuters reports.
Here's what we know so far:
Friday: Cambrils
- In the early hours of Friday morning, five armed attackers drive through a crowd of people in the town of Cambrils, 75 miles southwest of Barcelona.
- One person killed and six others injured, including one police officer.
- Police engage in a shootout with the attackers and kill all five.
- The attackers were wearing fake suicide belts.
Thursday: Barcelona
- A white van plows into pedestrians at around 5 p.m. on Las Ramblas, the city's busiest tourist promenade.
- At least 14 people are killed and more than 100 injured in the country's deadliest attack since the 2004 Madrid bombings.
- The driver of the van flees on foot and is believed to be still at large.
- People from at least 24 countries are among the injured, according to officials. A Belgian is among the 13 people dead.
- A second van, believed to be linked to the Barcelona van, is found in Vic, a town 43 miles from Barcelona, according to Reuters. A driver runs over two police officers at a security checkpoint, causing them minor injuries. It is unclear whether this is terrorism-related.
- Two suspects are arrested in the towns of Ripoll and Alcanar, but neither are the driver of the Barcelona van.
- ISIS claims the Barcelona attack through its media wing, but offers no evidence supporting the claim.

- One person is confirmed killed and seven others are injured.
- Officials have not confirmed the cause of the explosion.
- Police say the victim killed is a Spanish national and was not on police radar.
- Officials say the house collapsed completely and caused serious damage to the façade of the house next door.
