Tourist attack near Eiffel Tower leaves one dead, two injured
Man Detained in Paris After Fatal Stabbing and Hammer Attack
Police in Paris have apprehended a man following a shocking incident where he allegedly stabbed a tourist to death and assaulted two others with a hammer. The suspect, a 26-year-old French resident whose identity remains undisclosed, is said to have killed a German tourist near the iconic Eiffel Tower, as confirmed by Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin.
Despite the suspect already being in police custody, Darmanin took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to urge people to stay away from the Quai de Grenelle area. The situation was still deemed potentially dangerous.
Alleged Motive and Background
Darmanin revealed that the perpetrator reportedly shouted “Allahu Akbar,” an Arabic phrase meaning “God is greatest,” before carrying out the attack. The suspect’s identity was not disclosed, but it was confirmed that he had previously served a four-year prison sentence for an attempted terrorist act and is currently under surveillance by French security services.
Upon his arrest, the suspect expressed his frustration to the police, citing the loss of Muslim lives in Afghanistan and Palestine. Darmanin also mentioned that the man suffers from psychiatric disorders, further complicating the situation. To subdue him, the police resorted to using a stun gun.
Investigation and Future Concerns
The anti-terrorism prosecutor’s office has taken charge of the investigation, indicating the seriousness of the incident. This alarming event comes just eight months before Paris is set to host the Olympics, with the opening ceremony scheduled to take place near the Seine River. The event is expected to attract a massive crowd of 600,000 attendees.
