Syrian jihadist attacks French police with hammer at Notre Dame cathedral
The officer who was attacked survived. But terror is still continuing in France:
A man with a hammer cried "This is for Syria" before bashing a police officer in the head outside Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris Tuesday, a top official revealed, as a terror investigation was under way.It's got much to do with Ramadan taking place as well. The best way to prevent a lot of these attacks would be to close off the enclaves where the jihadists are squatting. But don't expect president Macron to recognize that, or do anything serious to work that out.
The hammer-wielding man also had two kitchen knives and "other unsophisticated weapons" with him before charging toward officers patrolling the esplanade in front of the cathedral, French Interior Minister Gerard Collomb said. The wounded officer fired at the unnamed suspect twice, injuring the attacker who was later hospitalized, French police confirmed to Fox News. The specific conditions of both men were unclear.
The suspect had been threatening several policemen and passersby at the time, according to Collomb. Just before 5:30 p.m. local time, the operation was over.
Paris prosecutors have opened a counterterrorism investigation.
