Nice attack: Mayor says deadly stabbing points to terrorism Two people have died and at least one other person has been wounded in a stabbing in Nice, French reports say.

Nice Mayor Christian Estrosi said that one person had been arrested.

He said everything pointed to a "terrorist attack at the heart of the Notre-Dame basilica".

The interior minister appealed to people to avoid the area in the centre of the French Riviera city. Gérald Darmanin said he was convening a crisis meeting at the ministry in Paris.

According to French reports, a woman and a man had died in the attack and the suspect was detained 10 minutes later before being taken to hospital.
