At least two people were killed and several were wounded on Thursday following a knife attack at a church in the French city of Nice, according to multiple reports.
The attacker, believed to be acting alone, was injured during his arrest and was taken to a local area hospital, police said.
An investigation was opened into an attack by the French anti-terrorism prosecutor’s office, reports said. Images on French media showed the neighborhood locked down and surrounded by police and emergency vehicles.
Estrosi said the attacker shouted “Allahu akbar!” repeatedly as police apprehended him and that “the meaning of his gesture left no doubt."
Mayor Christian Estrosi suggested that the Thursday morning attack seemed to be terror-related, although a motive is unclear at this time.
Really?!? A beheading?!? Allahu Akbar?!? You're Not Sure?!?
