JOUE-LES-TOURS: French police on Saturday shot dead a knife-wielding man who attacked three officers in a police station while shouting "Allahu Akbar" ("God is great").
The man wounded one officer's face at the entrance to the police station in Joue-les-Tours near the city of Tours in central France and injured two others before he was shot.
The perpetrator was a Burundi-born French national who was known to police for common crimes, a source close to the investigation told AFP.
The attacker "shouted 'Allahu Akbar' from the moment he entered until his last breath," the source said.
"It looked like the sort of act called for by Islamic State," the source said.
