Two police officers were injured by a machete-wielding assailant in the Belgian city of Charleroi, Belgian broadcaster RTBF reported on Saturday.
Specifically, the man is said to have crossed a barrier outside the city’s main police station, shouting ‘Allahu Akbar’.
RTBF sources said that two women police officers were injured in the man’s attack, with one of them having sustained serious injuries to her face.
The other officer is reported to have only be lightly injured.
The assailant was shot and injured by a third officer on the scene, while a perimeter has been established around the station. The assailant is said to have succumbed to his injuries after being brought to the hospital.
