Paris shooting: Several killed and injured after ‘Kalashnikov and grenade attacks’ across French capital

Live updating from the Telegraph. This sounds like Mumbai all over again. It won’t be a local gangfight, not suicide bombs.

“Several” shooting incidents with at least two dead and seven injured in eastern Paris. The gunmen, who used Kalashnikovs, are still at large. An eyewitness on BFMTV said that they saw at least two people dead outside the petit Cambodge restaurant in Paris 10th arrondissement. It is situated in a trendy district in eastern Paris next to the canal Saint Martin, popular with young Parisians and foreign tourists at the weekend.

A second incident is believed to have taken place near the Bataclan club, which is only a few hundred yards from the former offices of Charlie Hebdo, where 12 were killed in January. LCI also reporting that hostages have been taken at the Bataclan concert venue near the Place de la Republique. 

French police union now reporting 20 dead. It is still not clear how many of the attack sites are still active. 

Several grenade explosions reportedly went off at Stade de France at France vs Germany match with BFMTV citing “several dead”. Gregory Goupil of the Police Union Alliance has told the LCI News channel that the two explosions near the Stade de France were suicide attacks.
