Paris police chief says man who injured 3 in knife and hammer attack may suffer mental health issues

PARIS (AP) — A man armed with a knife and a hammer injured three people Saturday in an early-morning attack at the major Gare de Lyon train station in Paris, another nerve-rattling security incident in the Olympic host city before the Summer Games open in six months. The Paris prosecutor’s office said a security guard tackled the attacker who was taken into police custody following the attack. One of the injured was in a serious condition, police said. The Paris police chief said the attack did not appear to be terror-related and that the suspect seemed to suffer from mental health issues. Security in Paris is being ramped up as it prepares to welcome the Olympic Games in July.
