French police officer who swapped himself for hostage dies of his injuries
TREBES, France -- A French police officer who offered himself up to an
Islamic extremist gunman in exchange for a hostage died of his injuries,
raising the death toll in the attack to four. The officer was honored
Saturday as a national hero of "exceptional courage and selflessness.&#
34;
Col. Arnaud Beltrame, 44, was among the first officers to respond to the
attack on the supermarket in the south of France on Friday.
Beltrame, who first took his place among the elite police special forces in
2003 and served in Iraq in 2005, had organized a training session in the
Aude region in December for just such a hostage situation. At the time, he
armed his officers with paintball guns, according to Depeche du Midi, the
local newspaper.
"We want to be as close to real conditions as possible," he said
then.
But when he went inside the supermarket on Friday, he had given up his own
weapon and volunteered himself in exchange for a female hostage.
Unbeknownst to the Morocco-born captor, he left his cellphone on so police
outside could hear what was happening in the store. They stormed the
building when they heard gunshots, officials said. Beltrame was fatally
wounded.
His death raises the toll to four. The gunman was also killed, and 15 people
were injured in the attack.
Announcing the police officer's death on Twitter, Interior Minister Gé
rard Collomb said: "He died for his country."
"France will never forget his heroism, his bravery, his sacrifice,"
Collomb said, the BBC reports.
"Arnaud Beltrame died in the service of the nation to which he had
already given so much," President Emmanuel Macron said in a statement. &
#34;In giving his life to end the deadly plan of a jihadi terrorist, he fell
as a hero."
Beltrame graduated in 1999 from France's leading military academy in
Saint Cyr, according to the BBC. He joined the elite police special forces
in 2003 and deployed to Iraq in 2005, according to a statement. He served as
a member of the presidential guard and in 2012 earned one of France's
highest honors, the Order of Merit. He was married with no children.
Beltrame's brother, Cedric Beltrame, told RTL radio Saturday his sibling
died "a hero." He added that his brother "was well aware he had
almost no chance. He was very aware of what he was doing."
People were placing flowers in front of the Gendarmerie headquarters in
Carcassone to pay tribute to Col. Beltrame.
Macron has said investigators will focus on establishing how the gunman,
identified by prosecutors as Morocco-born Redouane Lakdim, got his weapon
and how he became radicalized.
On Friday night, authorities searched a car and the apartment complex in
central Carcassonne where Lakdim was believed to live.
Two people were detained over alleged links with a terrorist enterprise, one
woman close to Lakdim and one friend of his, a 17-year-old male, Paris
prosecutor office said.
Lakdim was known to police for petty crime and drug dealing. But he was also
under surveillance and since 2014 was on the so-called Fiche S list, a
government register of individuals suspected of being radicalized but who
have yet to perform acts of terrorism.
Despite this, Paris prosecutor Francois Molins said there was "no
warning sign" that Lakdim would carry out an attack.
The four-hour drama began at 10:13 a.m. when Lakdim hijacked a car near
Carcassonne, killing one person in the car and wounding the other, the
prosecutor said. Lakdim then fired six shots at police officers who were on
their way back from jogging near Carcassonne, said Yves Lefebvre, secretary
general of SGP Police-FO police union. The police were wearing athletic
clothes with police insignia. One officer was hit in the shoulder, but the
injury wasn't serious, Lefebvre said.
Lakdim then went to a Super U supermarket in nearby Trebes, 60 miles -- 100
kilometers -- southeast of Toulouse, shooting and killing two people in the
market and taking an unknown number of hostages. Special police units
converged on the scene while authorities blocked roads and urged residents
to stay away.
He shouted "Allahu akbar!" -- the Arabic phrase for God is great --
and said he was a "soldier of the Islamic State" as he entered the
Super U, where about 50 people were inside, Molins said.
"We heard an explosion -- well, several explosions," shopper
Christian Guibbert told reporters. "I went to see what was happening and
I saw a man lying on the floor and another person, very agitated, who had a
gun in one hand and a knife in the other."
The manager of the supermarket said she felt "helpless." The woman,
who would identify herself only by her first name, Samia, said that she was
in her office when she heard the shots.
"How am I? I am devastated," she said "What we went through
yesterday was a tragedy. What else would you have me say? You feel utterly
helpless ."
She said she helped evacuate as many people as possible.
"It was terrifying," she said.
During the standoff, Lakdim requested the release of Salah Abdeslam, the
sole surviving assailant of the Nov. 13, 2015, attacks in Paris that left
130 people dead. The interior minister suggested, however, that Abdeslam'
;s release wasn't a key motive for the attack.
The ISIS-linked Aamaq news agency said the attacker was responding to the
group's calls to target countries in the U.S.-led coalition carrying out
airstrikes against ISIS militants in Syria and Iraq since 2014. France has
been repeatedly targeted because of its participation.
France has been on high alert since a series of extremist attacks in 2015
and 2016 that killed more than 200 people. One of those attacks, against a
kosher supermarket in Paris, seemed to foreshadow this week's deadly
assault in the south.
