At least three people were injured as a result of a knife attack early on Saturday in the Gare de Lyon rail station in Paris, police said adding that the suspected attacker has been arrested.
While sharing details of the attack which was carried out at around 8am, a police source said: “The suspect did not cry out (any religious slogans) during his attack. He presented the police an Italian driving licence.”
According to the authorities, two of the victims suffered light wounds while the third was more seriously hurt but was not in a life-threatening situation, Reuters reported.
The suspected assailant’s motive was not immediately clear.
Le Parisien reports that the suspect has “psychiatric disorders”, but this has yet to be confirmed by police.
Additionally, they also say that there is no suggestion of terrorist links yet as the investigation remains at such an early stage.
