One dead and another injured in horrific attack by Eiffel Tower
An attack in Paris by a man alleged to have shouted “Allah Akbah” has left one person dead and another injured.
The assault, which took place close to the Eiffel Tower, was enacted by a man who was born in France and is French, local media is reporting.
He screamed the Arabic words for “God is great” before he started the random stabbing attack on passersby.
Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin said on social media: “The police have just courageously arrested an assailant attacking passersby in Paris, around the Quai de Grenelle.
“One deceased person and one injured person treated by the Paris fire brigade. Please avoid the area.”
The anti-terrorism prosecutor’s office said it had not yet put in charge of an investigation.
