One witness told The Independent the jihadi shouted "Allahu akbar" [ meaning"allah is greater"] as he attempted to enter restaurants as diners barricaded the doors in order to not be killed by this religious extremist.
The witness Fiona, who only wanted her first name made public [because of all the extremists in Europe] said, "First one we thought it was two guys fighting." She was having dinner in the Kintaro restaurant when she heard the shouting.
"People that were queuing outside ran into the restaurant screaming, so everyone panicked and threw themselves on the floor." She said the same jihadi came back with a knife minutes later and was screaming the Arabic attack slogan: "Allahu akbar."
"Some guys, including my friend, blocked the door in case he would try to enter," Fiona added. "When we ran away they were still looking for the guy and one woman was laying down on the floor, her neck was bleeding."
The attack occurred on Rue Saint-Augustin, a street famous for its many restaurants.
A man who lives in the area saw a "body and a man with his hands covered in blood."
A police spokesperson said five people were stabbed adding: "One victim has died, two are seriously wounded and two are injured slightly. The attacker is dead."
French interior minister Gerard Collomb praised the "sang froid [cold blood] and quick reaction of police officers who neutralized the assailant."
"The victims of this despicable act are first in my thoughts," Collomb said in French.
There was no immediate confirmation of a motive for the attack, but with the shouting of "Allahu akbar," I'd put my money on Islamic terrorism inspired by the Koran.
It is unknown if the attacker is a recent immigrant or a native Frenchman with a proclivity toward Islamic terrorism.
CNN blames President Trump for this and other Paris attacks and are currently looking for a motive to fit the narrative.
