Paris - A man was arrested after trying
to drive a car into a crowd in front of a mosque in the Paris
suburb of Creteil on Thursday, police said, adding that no one
was injured.
Police said the man's motives were unclear, and that he had
not succeeded in driving into the crowd because of barriers
placed in front of the mosque.
According to Le Parisien newspaper, the man said he had
wanted to avenge attacks linked to Islamic State that have
killed dozens in Paris over the past years.
