Police shoot suspect armed with a knife near TdF finish in Rouen
French police shot and wounded a suspect armed with a knife near the finish of stage 4 in Rouen after he reportedly threatened spectators. The incident happened about two hours before the finish. As police pursued the suspect, he allegedly attempted to stab one of them, but was foiled by the officer's body armor. Police fired on him in response and he was arrested shortly thereafter. It's unclear, other than proximity to the finish, if the incident had anything to do with the race, but Le Parisien reported the suspect had been listed as wanted since fleeing a hospital in recent weeks.
