NICE, France (ST) – A knife-wielding attacker beheaded a woman and killed two other people at a church in the French city of Nice on Thursday.
Within hours of the Nice attack, police killed a man who had threatened passersby with a handgun in Montfavet, near the southern French city of Avignon.
France’s Le Figaro newspaper quoted a prosecution source as saying the man was undergoing psychiatric treatment, and that they did not believe there was a terrorism motive.
