The story · English

Police continue to say the motive for the attack is unknown. The shooting took place in a neighborhood with a large Jewish population.

Two people were killed in the incident, according to the article. One was officer Mohamed Lamine Ben Radouane. The other was Israeli Michael Mizrahi, who was mistakenly identified as one of the attackers and was shot by forces at the scene.
