Several people were lightly injured with a white weapon on Wednesday at Paris’s Gare de Nord train station after they were attacked by a man stopped immediately by police, police sources tell AFP.
The incident occurred around 06:45 local time (05:45 GMT) inside the station.
For an unclear reason, the man injured several people with a knife. He was taken over by police officers, according to the same source.
The attacker sustained minor injuries and was cared for by paramedics at the scene.
The wounded are currently being counted, says AFP.
“Thank you to the security forces for the courageous and effective response,” French Interior Minister Gerald Darmanan commented in a tweet.
