French investigators today began questioning a suspect in the attack on troops outside the Louvre Museum in Paris, but the man has so far refused to speak, a judicial source said.
The suspect, believed to be an Egyptian national, was shot in the stomach and seriously wounded after lunging at soldiers with a machete during Friday's incident.
Investigators decided to question him in hospital after his condition improved, the source said.
