Moroccan police arrested, Thursday in Agadir, a man known to them for drug trafficking, after he stabbed three tourists. The man was arrested after he attacked the three tourists with a knife on a beach in the coastal city of Agadir. His attempt to escape by swimming was foiled by a Royal Gendarmerie maritime patrol. The victims of the incident are a British couple and a Belgian-Moroccan national, according to police sources. Two of the slightly injured tourists have been released from hospital, while the third person is still admitted there.
