Paris witnessed two violent attacks in one night, leaving one man critically injured from a box cutter stabbing and another assaulted with a bottle shard. Police are actively searching for the suspects.

A violent attack occurred in the heart of the 17th arrondissement of Paris, where a man was stabbed in the throat with a box cutter during the early hours of Thursday, June 27. The incident took place around 4:30 a.m. when the victim encountered three men who asked him for a cigarette. Upon his refusal, one of the men took out a box cutter and inflicted a severe wound on the victim's throat.

The injured man managed to call the firefighters, who arrived promptly and transported him urgently to the Pitié-Salpêtrière hospital. Medical authorities noted a 15-centimeter wound on his neck, leaving his vital prognosis compromised. As of Thursday evening, the victim remains in critical condition.

The attackers fled the scene and are currently being actively sought by the police. The judicial police have been contacted to assist in their apprehension.

In a separate incident on the same night, another man was violently attacked with a shard of a bottle in the 18th arrondissement. This victim was trying to intervene while a man attempted to steal his bike. The cyclist received numerous blows from the shard. The attacker, who was under the influence of alcohol, was arrested by the police and taken into custody.

  • The first attack took place on rue de la Jonquière in the 17th arrondissement, highlighting the increasing concerns over safety in the area. The prompt response of the emergency services was crucial in providing immediate medical care to the victim.
  • The second incident in the 18th arrondissement underscores the risks faced by individuals when intervening in criminal activities. The victim's courageous attempt to prevent a theft led to a violent confrontation, resulting in serious injuries.
  • Authorities are urging the public to come forward with any information that could lead to the arrest of the suspects involved in these violent attacks. The judicial police continue to investigate both incidents to ensure the perpetrators are brought to justice.
