At least 60 people have been killed and several people injured in terror attacks in 4 different locations in Paris tonight. Many people were killed in shootings in a restaurant in the 10th & 11th Arrondissement, a very busy nightlife neighbourhood in Paris. Explosions were also heard. There was another attack at the French national stadium where French President Francois Hollande was watching a match. He was immediately removed from the stadium by his security operatives.
The gunmen, who used Kalashnikovs, are still at large. The environ of one of the shooting is close to where Charlie Hebdo shootings occurred in January. 60 individuals are reportedly being held captive in a concert hall.
Bataclan attacker reported to have explosives
One of the attackers at the Bataclan has explosives, according to a Liberation journalist quoting a police officer at the scene.
Meanwhile Julien Pierce, a Europe 1 journalist who was inside the Bataclan, has described what he saw:
"Several armed men came into the concert. Two or three men, not wearing masks, came in with what looked like Kalashnikovs and fired blindly on the crowd.
"It lasted between 10 and 15 minutes. It was extremely violent and there was panic. The attackers had enough time to reload at least three times. They were very young."
