A French soldier guarding the Louvre in Paris has shot and seriously injured a man carrying a knife who shouted "Allahu Akbar", police say.

The attacker is said to have been trying to enter an underground shopping area outside the museum.

Reports say he was carrying either suitcases or a rucksack, but no explosives have been found.

A big security operation is under way and the interior ministry has described the situation as "serious".

The Louvre has been evacuated.

Police say the soldier fired five shots at the man, who was brandishing a machete.

A guy pulls out a knife, and the whole country seems to turn upside down, ingly insanely feverish epoch.

Great news. French men are strong and have a tremendous military heritage.

He didn't kill him fortunately. Please leave your bloodthirst for the browns out of the headlines.

When I read it in the original German source, they said he was killed in their instant report.

I only used the English BBC text to post it here, without really reading it.

I corrected the headline.

Perpetrator was apparently a 29-year old Egyptian who entered France via a tourist visa. Egypt is not on Trump's travel ban list and it's not going to be. Because it's a scam.

What's fortunate about him not being killed? Now he'll get to stay in prison on government expense and he'll have plenty of opportunity to convert others to radical Islam while there.

Cultural shock.

Egypt is not on Trump's travel ban list and it's not going to be. Because it's a scam.

Thankfully he's here to make the US smart (again?) though.

...some people think human life is inherently valuable. Shocking, I know.

I agree with you completely. This is why it's bad that this terrorist can continue to endanger human lives.
