A former Liverpool FC player witnessed a horror knife attack in France that has left several children fighting for their lives.
An attacker with a knife has stabbed several young children and at least one adult, leaving some fighting for life. This has been confirmed by France's interior minister Gerald Darmanin, who said the attack happened in a square in the lakeside Alpine town of Annecy.
In a short tweet, he said police have detained the alleged attacker. He said: “Several people including children have been injured by an individual armed with a knife in a square in Annecy."
