2 Killed in Knife Attack in French Town Under Lockdown
In what was described as a potential terrorist attack, a knife-wielding man killed two people and wounded five others on Saturday morning in a town in southern France with only a few shops open under a national lockdown to prevent the coronavirus pandemic(新冠肺炎).
The attacks took place about 11 a.m. local time outside a bakery and other shops. Witnesses said that the suspect yelled, “Allahu akbar!’’ as he lunged at his victims, according to France Bleu. The assailant(行凶者) randomly attacked bystanders on the street, first cutting the throat of a man in his 40s in front of his companion and his son, in the center of Romans-sur-Isère, just south of Lyon, according to the French authorities and news media.
He then attacked two workers and a customer inside a tobacco store before heading to a butcher’s shop. The suspect, a 33-year-old man of Sudanese origin, was arrested by the police as he was “found on his knees on the sidewalk while praying in Arabic,” said the country’s antiterrorism(反恐怖主义) prosecutor’s office, which is handling the investigation into the attack. At the man’s home, investigators found religious writings in which the author complained of living in a “country of infidels(没有信仰的),” the prosecutors said in a statement.
The suspect — who the French news media said was an asylum-seeker(避难者) from Sudan — was not immediately identified by name. President Emmanuel Macron vowed that “light would be shed on this odious(可憎的) act which casts a shadow on our country, which has already been severely tested in recent weeks.”
