6 stabbed in Paris train station, attacker shot by police

PARIS (AP) — A knife attacker has wounded six people in an unprovoked attack in Paris’ busy Gare du Nord train station before being shot by police, French Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin said after arriving at the scene that the suspect attacked several people with a “bladed weapon” at around 6:43 a.m. Darmanin said the unnamed assailant was “between life and death” in a hospital. Several passengers and a border police officer were among the wounded, according to officials. The officer was stabbed in the back but was saved by a bulletproof vest, Darmanin said. Another one of the other victims was seriously wounded in the shoulder blade and was taken for emergency treatment.
