Two dead and at least four people were injured, two of them very seriously, by gunshots fired in the center of Paris. This was reported by a police source, specifying that a man of “around sixty” was arrested. According to the newspaper The Parisian the incident would have occurred near the Kurdish cultural center Ahmet-Kaya.
The incident took place in the 10th arrondissement, near rue d’Enghien: “Seven to eight shots in the street, it’s total panic, we were locked inside,” testified a trader from a nearby building.
