The French newspaper “Le Monde” revealed a surprise about the man who threatened pedestrians on a street in the French city of Avignon, and the police killed him, on Thursday morning.
French security forces shot dead a man who threatened bystanders with a large knife in the southern French city, in the second such attack in the country in a matter of hours.
About an hour earlier, an attack on a church in the city of Nice (southeast) left 3 dead and others injured. Sources said the attacker chanted “God is great.” The weights at that time were based on the fact that what happened in Avignon was related to the Nice accident, but “Le Monde” revealed otherwise.
The famous French daily said the man who was killed by the police and who threatened passersby “belongs to the extreme right and planned to attack Muslims.”
He claimed that “the man belonged to the extreme right Génération identitaire (preservation of identity) and threatened to attack a merchant of Maghreb origin”. He indicated that the dead man was 33 years old and suffered from psychological disorders.
For its part, the French website “C News” quoted the Prosecutor’s Office as saying: “We changed the course of the investigation and deviated from the assumption of Islam. The man was subjected to psychological monitoring and had previously made inconsistent comments.”
