A man armed with a knife with a blade of about 30 cm, threatened, this Monday, February 14, 2022 on Monday, 2022 around 7:00 am, a police patrol in the premises of the North Station in Paris.
Faced with the threat, the two police officers made use of their weapon and killed the suspect, of the European type, who died instantly.
No terrorist remarks were made and the terrorist track is therefore dismissed as the Minister of Transport confirmed, adding that the assailant was known to the police.
He was an author “known to the police to wander in the station”. “At this point, the terrorist reason is dismissed,” he said on RMC.
An anti-political inscription was also found on the knife of the assailant.
