France: Decapitated man was a local businessman
A French security official says the man whose severed head was found hanging at the gate of an American gas factory that was attacked in France has been identified as a local businessman.
A car rammed the factory gate Friday in southeastern France and plowed into gas canisters, touching off an explosion. A decapitated body and flags with Arabic writing were found at the entrance.
The security official, who was not authorized to speak to the media and requested anonymity, says the victim was the head of a local transportation company and was believed to have been killed before the explosion. His name was not released.
Authorities had said his body was found near the site of the attack.
