French police 'hero' dies of wounds
Quote:
A French police officer who swapped himself for a hostage in a supermarket siege on Friday has died, officials say.
Lt-Col Arnaud Beltrame, 44, "fell as a hero" and showed "exceptional courage", French President Emmanuel Macron said.
The gendarme helped bring an end to a gunman's shooting spree that killed three in southern France.
The radical Islamist gunman, 25-year-old Redouane Lakdim, was shot dead as police brought the siege to an end.
