Montpellier attack: Care worker stabbed to death at French retirement home for monks

The husband of a care worker stabbed to death at a religious retirement home today claimed the building was completely unguarded despite France being under a state of emergency.

Anti-terror police were leading a manhunt around the village of Montferrier-sur-Lez, near Montpellier after an intruder brandishing a shotgun and knife struck at the Green Oaks retirement home for missionaries who have worked in Africa.

An unidentified woman was bound, gagged and then stabbed to death last night before the killer fled, leaving some 50 elderly monks and other staff members to be rescued by police.

Today the husband of the dead woman said: “The home was unprotected” adding: “Anyone at all could go inside. There was no protection, no alarm, and no security guard.”
