PARIS: Police have detained a man suspected of trying to ram his car into soldiers jogging near their barracks in southeast France on Thursday, a security source told AFP. The National Police said on Twitter that an individual had been taken into custody after an operation at a market square in Grenoble, near the town of Varces-Allieres-et-Risset where the attempted attack occurred. Earlier, the man shouted death threats from his car window at several groups of French soldiers out for a Thursday morning jog in the French Alps, then tried to run two of them over, a military spokesman said.
