One person was killed and two others were wounded in a stabbing attack in downtown Paris on Saturday evening, Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin has said.
“The police have just courageously arrested an assailant attacking the passersby in Paris, around the Quai de Grenelle. One person is dead, and one injured person is being treated by the Paris fire brigade. Please avoid the area,” the minister wrote on X (formerly Twitter). He later told reporters that a third victim was also hospitalized.
Darmanin said that the assailant shouted “Allahu Akbar,” confirming previous reports by Le Parisien and AFP.
“After his arrest, he said that he could no longer tolerate seeing Muslims dying in Afghanistan and Palestine,” Darmanin told reporters after arriving at the crime scene.
