Driver ‘deliberately’ hit three Chinese students

A man rammed a car into three Chinese students near the French city of Toulouse yesterday, injuring one of them seriously, police sources said.

The 28-year-old driver, who was arrested afterwards in the city’s Blagnac suburb, acted “deliberately” but was not on a list of known extremists, one source said. He had previously suffered severe psychiatric problems and was released from a court-ordered hospital stay in Dec 2016, the Toulouse prosecutor said.
