TEHRAN, May 25 - French police are hunting a suspect following an explosion that wounded 13 people in a busy pedestrian street Friday in the city of Lyon.
TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) - Police issued an appeal for witnesses Saturday with a photo of a man with a bike caught on video surveillance. They describe the suspect, wearing light-colored shorts and a long-sleeved dark top, as "dangerous." He is believed to have deposited a sack or package that exploded.
Regional authorities said 13 people suffered mostly minor injuries, including 11 who were still in the hospital on Saturday morning.
France's counter-terrorism office opened an investigation and the counter-terrorism prosecutor, Remy Heitz, will host a news conference Saturday at noon.
Lyon mayor Gerard Collomb said he had no indication about the suspect's motives.
