FRENCH police have shot a man in central Marseille after he began stabbing bystanders, according to local media reports.
The motive for the attack was not immediately clear but French media reports suggest the stabbing was not terror-related.
According to La Provence the suspect is a 36-year-old homeless man who is known to local police but not to counter-terror officers.
Police fired on the suspect after he pulled a gun while attempted to flee.

knifeman shot dead by police
Why didn’t they get him the help he needed?
Don’t you think we should have UNHRA investigate this state-sponsored extra-judicial killing?
Hmm. A “man” stabbed five people. The “man” was known to the police. Motive unknown. This sounds like a board game
Yes- a game in which the people of France are the pawns.
Muslim
They won’t say it
Finally French cops carrying guns.
Sahih Muslim (20:4678) – It has been reported on the authority of Jabir that a man said: “Messenger of Allah, where shall I be if I am killed?” He replied: “In Paradise.” The man threw away the dates he had in his hand and fought until he was killed (i. e. he did not wait until he could finish the dates).
This was an easy one for the so called Prophet Mohammad. He normally had to think quickly when he got caught in a lie. Thanks to this flash of inspiration 1300 years ago, we have a stabbing frenzy spreading across Europe today.
Another Amish attack…
Looks like being nice to them don’t work.
the French have brought this upon themselves .At least he is death. We should learn from Europe be I am not sure we do.
