A man yelling “We have to kill Macron,” referring to French president Emanuele Macron, stabbed a 72-year-old priest more than 20 times in the legs and chest on Sunday morning in a church in Nice. The priest is expected to survive the attack, which French police say is not terror-related. A nun was also stabbed in the arm during the incursion near a polling station. The perpetrator was taken into custody without incident.
