French police have arrested a man suspected of being behind last week’s bomb blast in the central city of Lyon that injured 13 people, according to Interior Minister Christophe Castaner.
He announced the arrest on Twitter on Monday, but did not provide further details on the suspect or where he was arrested.
Security camera footage of the incident showed the partially masked suspect wheeling a bicycle to the scene, before leaving a bag outside a branch of a popular bakery chain, Reuters said.
The case is being handled as a terrorism investigation given the circumstances of the attack, in which the explosive device used was capable of hitting a large number of people with screws and metal balls.
