A policewoman has died and a civil employee is seriously hurt after a shooting in the south of Paris on Thursday morning, France24 reports.

The two people were shot near a metro station in Montrogue by a man wearing a bulletproof vest, the AFP reports. He was carrying an automatic rifle.

So far, no connection has been established between Thursday morning's shooting and Wednesday's terrorist attack at the Paris office of the satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo, which left 12 dead.

France's interior minister Bernard Cazeneuve said the suspect was on the run, according to the AFP. It was earlier reported that the gunman had been detained.

There are also reports of an explosion at a kebab shop near a mosque in Lyon, but a link hasn't been established to Wednesday's Paris assault there either.

Amazing that one can miss such an obvious link.

I can guess a connection, but that would be phobic.

"He was carrying an automatic rifle. "

Hmmm, does France have a TEA Party? Amish? NRA?

Did she have a sidearm,
and how did the gunman have an “automatic rifle” ?

Impossible. It’s illegal.

Here's How Russia And Putin Are Responding To The Terrorist Attack In Paris

“The tragedy in Paris shows that it’s not Russia threatening Europe and its safety. This is a bluff,” Alexei Pushkov, head of Russia’s parliamentary committee on foreign affairs, wrote on Twitter. “The real threat comes from adherents of terror. That’s a fact.”

I doubt that the police officer was armed. She was apparently investigating a traffic accident when this gunman came up and shot her and also hit a street cleaner working nearby. I wonder if the accident was staged as a trap?

The French better arm their police. They’re just sitting ducks now.

No clear "link" but a rather obvious pattern.
The investigators must know terrorists operate in cells which by design have no direct connections with other cells.
Find the mastermind and you find the link.

Islam trumps all man made illegality. To defend islam at all costs, even perceived! the so-called quiet form the majority of muslims is deafening
