A French official says a suspect who rammed his white van into two bus stops in the southern French city of Marseille, killing a woman, is being treated for psychological problems.
A press official for police headquarters in Marseille says the suspect, who has not been identified by name, is 35 years old and from the Grenoble region in eastern France.
He rammed his van into two bus stops in two neighborhoods of the Mediterranean port city, killing a woman and injuring a man. He was arrested in Marseille's scenic Old Port neighborhood.
The official said specialists were going over the van for clues about the suspect's motives as he was being questioned. The official could not be named in keeping with French rules.
Police and forensic experts in white suits took evidence from the bus stop. The glass walls of the bus stop where the woman was killed were shattered.
