France stabbings: Man who knifed toddlers 'sat in park every day for a month'

The man accused of knifing four toddlers in France silently sat in the park almost every day for at least a month before his rampage, locals say.

Abdalmasih Hanoun, a Syrian refugee, apparently spent hours sat on benches less than 50 feet from the scene of Thursday’s attack in Annecy.

French Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne confirmed that the victims - aged between 22 months and three years - all underwent surgery and are now in a stable condition.
