A female police employee has been fatally stabbed in a knife attack at a police station in Rambouillet, south-west of Paris.
Anti-terror prosecutors have taken over the inquiry, and the killing is being treated as a possible terrorist attack.
The 48-year-old unarmed administrative officer was stabbed in the neck.
The 36-year-old attacker, who reportedly came to France from Tunisia several years ago, was shot and later died in hospital.
The stabbing took place in the secure entrance to the police station on Friday afternoon as the worker was returning from her break at 14:20 (12:20 GMT).
