October 29, three people were stabbed to death at a church in the French city of Nice. A 21-year-old Tunisian national was charged in their murder, and President Macron said the country was under attack by "Islamist and terrorist madness."
Prosecutors said the suspect had photos on his phone of the man who beheaded a teacher near Paris 13 days earlier, potentially indicating a common motive.
The middle school teacher, Samuel Paty, was killed by an 18-year-old man of Chechen origin who, before the attack, said in a post on social media that he wanted to punish Paty for showing caricatures of the Prophet Mohammed in his class.
Macron subsequently issued a strong defense of the principle of freedom of speech and said France would not "give up" the caricatures, which were published in satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo in 2012.
The attacks are the latest in a string of violence linked to the cartoon in France over several years. In 2015, 17 people were killed in a terror attack that began in Charlie Hebdo's offices in Paris and carried on for three days.

Terrorist, if found, will use the “I just smoked marijuana and am not accountable” defense. (muzzie guy got acquitted for rape using that defense).
Good Lord - this female officer was killed at the Police Station. Is Joy Behar giving advice to the French Police - shoot in the air first ???
If a cop is killed... then they decide to investigate. The jihadis will be taking note. Stick to killing private citizens and the govt of France will not care one whit.
Did the officer fire a warning shot in the air?
Oh come no just a jihadist having some knife fun no harm done right LeBron, commies
That’s just Jihadist for “Hey hows it hangin”
“”Did the officer fire a warning shot in the air?””

Ramadan days seem to be is a higher time of this “holy” ritual.

Was there a counselor on scene?
So there are no guns so you use a knife
