French Defense Minister Florence Parly condemned a car-ramming into a group of military patrolling in the Paris suburb of Levallois-Perret Wednesday morning, the Radio France Internationale (RFI) reported.
Six people were injured, two of them seriously, after a car slammed into soldiers on patrol in Levallois-Perret on Wednesday, police said.
The vehicle took off after the incident.
French police have launched a manhunt following the incident which the mayor of Levallois-Peret, Patrick Balkany, described as “without a doubt a deliberate act”. Balkany said that the car “accelerated very fast when they (soldiers) were coming out” of the barracks.
Parly condemned the incident as a “cowardly act”. The incident “does nothing to dent soldiers’ determination to work for the security of the French people,” she said in a statement.
France has been under a state of emergency since November 2015 and has seen a string of attacks on security forces, particularly those guarding key tourist sites.
