Police Shoot Dead Suspected Knifeman After Stabbing Five in Marseille
A Tunisian man legally residing in France went on a stabbing spree in central Marseille, injuring five people, including a hotel roommate, the hotel manager and his son, as well as bystanders at a nearby snack bar. The attack began after the suspect was evicted from a hotel for non-payment of rent, and he wielded two knives and an iron bar during the rampage. Police arrived on the scene and ordered the man to drop his weapons, but after he ignored commands and rushed toward them while reciting verses from the Koran, officers shot and fatally wounded him. One victim remains in critical condition, while the others sustained serious injuries but are not believed to be in life-threatening danger. Authorities have launched an investigation into attempted murder and attempted murder of a police officer, with Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau planning to visit Marseille's police headquarters following the incident. The motive behind the attack remains under investigation, though eyewitness accounts and security footage are aiding authorities' inquiries.
