Knife attack at Porte de Clichy: three women injured, suspect detained by off-duty officer
On July 27, 2026, around 11:30 a.m., a man attacked three women with two kitchen knives in the Porte de Clichy area, north of Paris. The victims — aged 19, 24, and 36 — were all hospitalized. Two have serious injuries but their condition is not life-threatening. An off-duty French police officer detained the suspect shortly after the assault. Interior Minister Laurent Nunez confirmed the attack and cautioned against premature conclusions about the suspect's motives, noting that he had made 'incoherent statements.'
