Two people were killed and one «badly injured» in a knife attack Thursday in Trappes, a suburb west of Paris, according to France's National Police. The attacker was also killed, police said. «After the attack, he ran into a house to hide. He left shortly afterward and threatened police before being neutralized», police added. The two people who were killed were the attacker's mother and sister, a spokesman for the Interior Ministry told reporters. Interior Minister Gérard Collomb told reporters in Trappes that «the attacker had serious psychiatric problems» and that he «was known for being a terror apologist». The attacker was on the File for the Prevention of Terrorist Radicalization, a targeted watch list which focuses on would-be jihadists. ISIS claimed responsibility for the attack via its Amaq media outlet but did not provide any evidence to support the claim.
