A man has been shot dead by the French army after he stabbed a person to death at Marseille’s main train station in southern France, a police source said.
France’s interior minister, Gérard Collomb, said on Twitter he was heading to Marseilles immediately following the attack.
Police earlier said they cordoned off the area while they were carried out an operation.
They asked people to stay away from the area, the local police force said on its Twitter feed on Sunday.
