May 12 (UPI) -- A lone attacker, yelling "God is Great" in Arabic, stabbed to death at least one person and wounded four others in central Paris' opera district on Saturday night before police shot him dead, authorities said.
City prosecutor François Molins told reporters counterterrorism authorities are investigating the attack as terrorism based on the "Allahu Akbar" declaration, claims of responsibility by the Islamic State and the manner of attack.
