Terror Attack in France

And there is no doubt about the motive. France terror attack: Attacker screaming 'Allahu Akbar' stabs multiple cops in Mulhouse - World News - Mirror Online

Mulhouse, France is roughly 235 miles east southeast of Paris, or about 170 miles northeast of Lyon. It is about 15 miles north of the border with Switzerland, and 7 miles west of Germany.

Michèle Lutz, the Mayor of Mulhouse, said: ‘Horror has just gripped our city. A man attacked passers-by at the covered canal market with a knife, several municipal police officers who intervened to arrest him were also injured.’

There are several stories on this incident, with varying numbers of wounded, but the most current numbers are one dead, two police officers with severe/life-threatening injuries, and three police officers whose injuries are described as minor, though that may only be in relation to guy who got stabbed in the neck.

The arrested man, who also remained unidentified publicly, was on a file containing suspects said to have been ‘radicalised as terrorists,’ said Mr Heitz. He did not have settled status in France, and was due to be deported, having been convicted in the past of ‘showing sympathy for terrorism’.

There is also mention of other terror attacks, that I don't recall seeing in the news, though the US news media is not very interested in reporting on the rise in crime and terror in Europe.

The attack unfolded by the Market Square and canal in the middle of Mulhouse, when it was packed with shoppers.
It follows a series of bomb, gun and knife attacks carried out by Islamic State and al-Qaeda operatives across France.

I will have to go back to reading the European news from sources in Europe.
