Wimbledon champion Boris Becker declared bankrupt

The three-time champion owed a substantial sum to an investment company.

The 49-year-old owed a firm of private bankers a large sum and the court registrar said there was not enough credible evidence that he could pay.

Mr Becker’s lawyers asked for a final chance to pay with the funds from remortgaging a property in Majorca.

Mr Becker, now a coach and TV pundit for the BBC and other media, was not at the hearing in London.

Registrar Miss Christine Derrett said it was “with regret” that she came to the conclusion that he could not pay.

“I remember watching him play on Centre Court, which probably shows my age,” she added.

The bankruptcy application was made by Arbuthnot Latham in connection with a debt owed to them for nearly two years.

BREAKING NEWS: Passengers flee in terror as knife-wielding man is tackled by police at Paris’ Gare du Nord

A man with a knife has been arrested by police at Paris’ Gare du Nord station, sparking panic just a day before the French presidential vote.

A French police official said that a man carrying a knife walked into the station and was flagged to police, who arrested him immediately before anyone could be harmed.

The official spoke on condition of anonymity because she was not authorized to speak publicly.

The Gare de Nord is one of the French capital’s top transit hubs, serving the city’s metro, suburban trains as well as intercity and high-speed trains like the Eurostar from London.

He was told to lie down and followed the orders before he was arrested.

The scene led panic among passengers who tried to flee the scene, a witness told Reuters, adding that trains have been delayed.
