‘Allahu Akbar!': Knife-Man Shot Dead After Attacking Spanish Police
2018-08-20
[Breitbart] An Algerian migrant male was shot dead early Monday morning by Spanish police after he attempted to attack officers with a knife.

Officers fired on and killed the 29-year-old man outside the police station in Cornellà de Llobregat in Catalonia, Spain, the Catalan edition of elPeriodico reports. Besides the slain attacker, there were no reported injuries.

The man, who is reported to have been an Algerian who lived in Cornellà, attempted to gain access to the station at 05:52 Monday morning, while carrying a knife and shouting "Allahu Akbar" [Allah is the Greatest] ‐ the familiar Islamic phrase which has increasingly come to be associated with the opening stages of terror attacks across Europe in recent years.

He was shot in the reception area of the station by one of the officers present. An ambulance was brought to the scene but the Algerian male subsequently died of his wounds.

The station and the assailant’s residence have been cordoned off by police, who are now investigating the background and motivation for the attack.

#9  That's a feature in the religion, not the mental problem.

#8  But maybe he had mental problems!

He heard voices urging him to kill unbelievers - whenever he visited a mosque?

Yes, very likely to remain a mystery.
