Stabbing suspect in potential terror attack had ‘threatened Belgian police’

After the stabbings, the suspect was almost immediately shot by another police official called to the scene.

A lone attacker who killed one police officer and hurt another in a stabbing earlier went to a police station to express hatred for them, Belgian authorities said.

The suspect made “unhinged remarks” during a talk with officers hours before the attack, which is being investigated as possibly terror-related, Brussels prosecutor Sarah Durant said.
