A police officer has died and four more have been injured after an armed man, who was heard yelling Allahu Akbhar, attacked several people at a French market.
The bloodbath unfolded at a market in the eastern city of Mulhouse, on the border of Germany, on Saturday afternoon when witnesses heard the cry ‘Allahu Akbar’ – Arabic for ‘God is the Greatest’.
The officers were slashed repeatedly by the man – an Algerian aged 37 who was on a terrorist watch list and faced deportation.
