A woman was beheaded after a man attacked people with a knife in Nice Thursday, Reuters reported, citing the source at the local police station.

“The attacker used the same method that the terrorist in the city of Conflans-Sainte-Honorine used,” Mayor Christian Estrosi told BFMTV.

During the attack, the man had screamed “Allah Akbar”. The mayor added that one of the victims was a priest, TASS reported.

Estrosi informed that President of France Emmanuel Macron will arrive in Nice in a couple of hours. Earlier, BFMTV had reported the deaths of three people.
