The incident occurred shortly after midnight on rue de Hosingen, where police were called out to an altercation that had escalated into physical violence.
According to initial reports, a man attacked a woman, repeatedly beating her before stabbing her. The suspect fled the scene before police arrived, immediately triggering a search operation in the village.
Police eventually located the man a few hundred metres away, in a camper van parked opposite the church. He was arrested without incident. Several knives were seized during the vehicle search.
When emergency services arrived, the victim was rushed to the hospital with life-threatening injuries.
On the orders of the public prosecutor, the suspect was taken into custody and then brought before an investigating judge later that day. A detention order was issued, and the man was transferred to Uerschterhaff prison in Sanem. Investigators are continuing their inquiries to establish the sequence of events and the motives behind this attack.
