It seems the attack near the Bataclan (third attack) is still ongoing #Paris
Breaking?
Now I guess I'll go over and read the article.
One website says there were two blasts.
I know a young lady who lived in Marseille for two years on a mission trip. It was controlled by muslims.
BBC NEWS:
A gunman using an automatic gun opened fire at the Cambodge restaurant in the capital’s 11th district. BFMTV says at least seven people were injured.
Liberation newspaper says a number of people have been killed. There is no official confirmation.
Another attack - an explosion - is reported to have targeted a bar near Stade de France

This is no excuse for anti-Muslim racism or calls to allow citizens to arm themselves. This is a time to be a victim. Volunteers still wanted.
Probably Basque separatists or Reformation activists.
That's in the 11th arrondissement, near the site of the Charlie Hebdo attack.

#URGENT Fusillade a #Paris : “Plus de 10 victimes. Des gens masques, armes ont tire de tous les cotes”
From the Globe and Mail:
Police officials in France say there has been a shootout in a Paris restaurant and an explosion in a bar near a Paris stadium.
BFM television says there were several dead in the restaurant shooting in the 10th arrondissement of the capital. Two police officials confirmed the shooting but had no information about casualties.
Also late Friday, two explosions were heard outside the Stade de France stadium north of Paris during a France-Germany friendly football match. It was unclear if the events were linked.
A police official confirmed one explosion in a bar near the stadium. It is unclear whether there are casualties.
An Associated Press reporter in the stadium Friday night heard two explosions loud enough to penetrate the sounds of cheering fans. Sirens were immediately heard, and a helicopter was circling overhead.
The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to be publicly named.

Raid (Police special unit) and French army is being deployed in Paris following three attacks #Paris
I’m guessing tourists won’t be so enthusiastic to go to France anymore. Or Europe in general for that matter.
3 locations...18 dead.
Good thing its a religion of peace
