From the article:
"He was shot dead by the French army who swarmed the area this afternoon"

Good, appropriate work by the French police.

There's no use in taking these "instant jihadis" prisoner.
Just kill them immediately and be done with it.
Saves time and trouble, and may even set an example...

The prosecutor, Francois Molins, told a news conference that the suspect, who was shot dead by a French soldier, went by seven different identities. One such identity named him as “Ahmed H”, born in 1987 in Tunisia.

He had shown a Tunisian passport when last stopped by police in the city of Lyon on Sept. 29 on suspicion of robbery. He was subsequently released by police for lack of evidence on Sept. 30, the day before Sunday’s attack.
