Cannes - In Cannes, in the south of France, a police officer was attacked with a knife and injured.

The incident occurred on Monday morning in front of a police station, as the AFP news agency learned from police circles.

Accordingly, a “terrorist” attack is assumed.

According to the information, the man approached a police vehicle in front of the guard at around 6:30 am, opened the door and stabbed the police officer sitting inside "in the chest".

However, the policeman's bulletproof vest "protected" him.

The alleged attacker then went around the vehicle and attacked the driver, it was said.

A third officer seriously injured him.

"The attacker was neutralized," wrote France's Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin on Twitter.
