A man has been shot dead after grabbing a solider's gun at Orly airport in Paris, French officials say.

He was killed by the security forces in a shop after seizing the weapon in the airport's southern terminal.

The airport has been shut down after what the authorities say was an extremely serious incident and passengers not allowed to disembark.

A security operation is continuing with bomb disposal experts involved and a search for any possible accomplices.

Police also want to make sure the dead man was not wearing an explosive belt......

Quite an extreme post. Paris is lovely in the Spring and Summer and I’ll be there. You can have Chicago, Orlando, Boston, etc. and I’ll take Paris!

radicalized Muslim.

Does that radicalization occur before or just after the umbilical cord is cut?

Yep. Their tourism business is pretty much quickly dying on the vine....it’s finished. A tourist would be way safer on the streets of Jerusalem or Tel Aviv, or maybe even Beirut, than Paris.

You sound like an idiot! Paris is not a one horse town. Orly is miles from the center of Paris. The gendarmes will handle the situation. We had best pay attention to our own pot of worms. Paris has had incidents and I was there for some, but it has never had a 9/11!

There is no need for personal insults at fellow FReepers, Mollypitcher1.
I've seen England, I've seen France, would love to visit again, yet now I can't.

Why is the guy in the third picture cradling his Rifle?

It should be pointed toward the ground.

Just sayin’...

It is a still photo, give him a break. We don't know what he was doing five seconds before photo was snapped.
Maybe he was just reaching into his pocket for a stick of chewing gum.
Who knows...yet his finger is nowhere near the trigger, so bystanders are perfectly safe.

“...You sound like an idiot!...”
Yep. I’ve heard that before. I was called that very same thing several years ago before 9/11 when I started calling out muslims as being violent and terroristic.

“...It has never had a 9/11!....”
With the muslim invasion that it’s now experiencing, it’s only a matter of time.

From a tourist point of view, wild horses couldn’t drag me to France, or Europe, right now. It’s just too dangerous. At least here, I can stay armed and ready.

Thank you but I will believe my own eyes and my own experiences before I pay attention to the sensationalism perpetrated on the sensibilities of the timid by the hustlers of so called journalism.

I spent a very enjoyable 5 months in Europe....mostly France last summer-autumn and returned home the first of November to vote. I’ll be returning again this summer as usual. I am far safer in Paris than I would be in Chicago. To each his own.
