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.

Public in France will begin, if not already, accepting this as a normal” happening....
France has been all along under a state of emergency following a spate of Islamist terror attacks. This guy, known by the, still gets through....so much for state of emergency!
I saw something on a more left-leaning site, which nevertheless made me laugh.
It was a photo of Mme. Le Pen with the caption: «Cela, me rend humide.»
I foresee the French Press spinning that these attacks are in response to Le Pen’s popularity and if you vote for her more attacks will occur....blah, blah, blah..
Is that true?
France is obviously under seige...:
...March, 18, 2017 - Convicted criminal with links to radical Islam shouted ‘I am here to die for Allah, there will be deaths’ seconds before he was shot dead during an attack at Orly airport. The 39-year-old, named locally as career criminal Ziyed Ben Belgacem, was killed after wrestling a soldier’s gun from her and fleeing into a McDonald’s. He sent a text message to his brother and father stating ‘I shot the police’, shortly before he was killed.
....February 3, 2017 - A man is shot five times outside the Louvre museum in the heart of Paris after attempting to storm the historic art gallery.
....July 14, 2016 - Amid Bastille Day celebrations in the Riviera city of Nice, a large truck is driven into a festive crowd. Some 86 people from a wide variety of countries are killed. The driver is shot dead. Islamic State extremists claim responsibility for the attack. The state of emergency in France is extended and extra protection, including robust barriers to prevent similar attacks, is put in place at major sites in France.
....June 13, 2016 - Two French police officers are murdered in their home in front of their 3-year-old son. Islamic State claims responsibility for the slaying, which was carried out by a jihadist with a prior terrorist conviction. He is killed by police on the scene.
.....Nov. 13, 2015 - Islamic State militants kill 130 people in France’s worst atrocity since World War II. A series of suicide bomb and shooting attacks are launched on crowded sites in central Paris, as well as the northern suburb of Saint-Denis. Most of those killed are in a crowded theater where hostages are taken. Islamic State extremists claim responsibility and say it was in retaliation for French participation in airstrikes on the militant group’s positions in Syria and Iraq. It leads to the declaration of a state of emergency in France. Police powers are expanded.
....Jan. 7, 2015 - Two brothers kill 11 people inside the Paris building where the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo is headquartered in what Islamic State extremists claim is retaliation for the publication of cartoons about the Prophet Muhammad. More are killed subsequently in attacks on a kosher market in eastern Paris and on police. There are 17 victims in all, including two police officers. The attackers are killed.
Yes...but we have that right here in our own country by the black community...
Wow...thanks for the pics. Paris at night is beautiful. So sad to see it like it is today.
I am not surprised. BLM is global soros outfit.
Yep...interesting is the photos never change much from one event of this nature to the next....it’s a norm now in France...
This is what Trump is trying to prevent from happening here.
Yes, same as with Afetna or whatever they call themselves....both should be listed as terrorist groups. They are only interested in violence and rioting.
I have little faith the French people will see thru the BS their media feeds them but i’ll be praying for the best.
Methodists.
They really are not overly bright. Inbreeding takes its toll. How many muslim bomb makers are there with missing limbs?
The wanted man they’re looking for now came from Belgium. As has been said...seems Brussels quite literally does import-export Jihadists.....
Jihadists seek the lame brained individuals....sometimes one could say they breed them for just that purpose. Rather like the Muslim Nations use the Palestinians from the camps and wont let them into their own countries. They always know they can draw a fresh supply from that source...
