A knife-wielding attacker was shot in the leg by police in the run-up to yesterday's Tour de France finish in Rouen.
According to French outlet Le Parisien, the attacker was a 21-year-old man, who appeared disorientated and was on the run from a hospital. He had allegedly threatened people and stabbed a police officer as the crowd waited for riders to arrive on stage four, which was won by UAE Team Emirates-XRG rider Tadej Pogačar.
