Two people attacked by machete-wielding man in Barcelona yelling ‘Allahu Akbar’

(Euro Weekly) Two people were attacked by a mentally ill man who chased them with a machete on Sunday evening.

Catalonian police managed to apprehend and arrest a Moroccan national who chased people through the streets while wielding a machete, but that wasn’t until he attacked two citizens, leaving one with an injury to their arm.

It’s believed that the man was unable to seriously harm either of the people as one of them was able to run away before being slashed, while the other person only sustained an arm injury as they looked to defend themselves.

The police have claimed that the man didn’t just attack these two people but also caused damage to several vehicles while making his way along the streets of Mataro and was also seen to be shouting “Allahu Akbar” which means God is great.
