French police launched a massive manhunt Tuesday after an attack on a prison convoy left an inmate on the run and two guards dead.
Hundreds of officers have been mobilized as the search continues for the escaped prisoner and those behind the attack.
The attack on the prison transport took place Tuesday morning in the country’s northern Eure region, west of Paris, and seriously injured three other prison guards, France’s justice minister Eric Dupond-Moretti said on social media.
