Woman and 3 daughters stabbed on Alps holiday

Jean-Marc Duprat, deputy mayor for the town of Laragne-Monteglin in the Hautes-Alpes region, said the mother and her girls, aged eight, 12 and 14, were on holiday at a nearby resort when a man from a neighbouring apartment attacked them yesterday morning.
Mr Duprat initially said the suspect was upset by what the girls were wearing, but later said that did not appear to be the case and the motive was not known.
