Eleven people have been injured jumping out of a second-floor flat window after apparently thinking they had seen the devil.
Police are investigating the incident which took place in the early hours in the small town of La Verriere, west of Paris.
Officers said some of the injured were children including a four-month-old baby, who is in a serious condition in a children's hospital in the French capital.
"Thirteen people were in an apartment on the second floor when, at around 3am, one of the occupants heard his child crying," said Odile Faivre, the deputy prosecutor in Versailles.
"The man in question, of African origin, who was completely naked, got up to feed his child, at which point the other occupants took him for the devil.
"He was seriously wounded in the hand after being stabbed with a knife before he was thrown out of the apartment, via the door."
