Yet another case of an Afghan stabbing in Europe. In Metz, five Afghans were stabbed Monday by a group of other Afghans in the suburban area of the city (once famous for a huge World War 1 battle). It seems that the stabbing is a "settling of scores" between rival criminal Afghan gangs. It also seems France, Germany, and other European countries are experiencing an epidemic of Afghans going berserk on the city streets with knives. For several years, young male Afghans have been flooding into Europe claiming asylum. Now that the Taliban are back in power, don't expect countries like France to send Afghans back home even after committing serious crimes. Afghanistan is simply too dangerous, you know. So it's the Europeans who have to be in danger.

The attack, which took place outside a convenience store in an outlying quarter of the city, is reportedly connected to a settling of scores between members of the same Afghan community.
Five persons were wounded, at least of whom very seriously, outside a convenience store in Metz, on Monday, Le Figaro learned from reliable sources. According to one police source, the attack, which took place shortly after 10 am, is reportedly connected to a racketeering case involving a settling of scores, involving members of the Afghan community.
"Several victims of this attack, of Afghan origin, identified the perpetrators as belonging to the same diaspora," living in Metz Borny, a peripheral quarter situated east of the city, this source continues. (This source) also praises the "great response" of the Intervention Section of the police which permitted the emergency care of one of the victims, (who was) seriously injured, by using a tourniquet. The five individuals were all transported to a hospital.
On the run since this morning, the perpetrators are still actively being sought by police. The terrorist hypothesis is excluded at this stage, stated the (national) prosecutor of Metz, Yves Badorc, to Agence France Presse (AFP). The case opened for "attempted murder" has been assigned to the Indepartmental Service of the Metz Judicial Police (SIPJ).
