Two policemen have been wounded in a shooting on the Champs Elysees in Paris, French media say.

Some reports say the gunman who fired on them has been killed by police.

The Champs Elysees has been sealed off. France goes to the polls on Sunday in the first round of the presidential election.

There is no word on the identity of the gunman. Jihadism is a major issue in the vote after attacks claimed by so-called Islamic State.

Mentally ill. Drug user. In a conflict with family/girlfriend. No one knows him at the mosque. If he did go there, no one liked him. Gun Crime. Ban guns.

Very fluid and even if there were two gunmen it will be reported as one once it’s over...

Marine Le Pen’s polling just went up several points.

With half the population.

Unfortunately, this event makes it rise for a good portion of the remainder of the electorate.

It seems from what I’ve read, Le Pen is the only candidate who actually says she’s going to deal with the muslim problem. No?
