PARIS - A man armed with a knife fatally stabbed one person and wounded another on April 10 in the French southwestern city of Bordeaux, a government source briefed on the attack said.

The attacker was killed by police. Police do not initially think the attack was terrorism-related, BFM TV reported.

The Bordeaux prosecutor's office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The attack took place near the banks of the Garonne river in central Bordeaux. One video on social media showed police standing over a body covered in a white blanket. Reuters could not immediately verify the video.

Less than four months before the Olympic Games, France is on its highest state of security alert.
