Shooting in Paris - there is a wounded

The unknown person opened fire near the building of Société Générale, located in the La Defense business complex in the suburbs of Paris. The incident occurred on Monday at about an hour in the afternoon. Two hours before, the shooting occurred in the Paris edition of the Liberal publication, and the shooter managed to hide. As a result of shooting at the editorial office, a photographer of the newspaper was seriously wounded. The police do not exclude that in both cases we are talking about the same criminal.

According to the French media, a message appeared on the Twitter network from one of the office buildings of the La Defense complex, according to which the shooting man was dressed in a jacket of khaki and a baseball cap, which corresponds to a description of the unknown who opened fire in the editorial office of Liberation.

Currently, the Paris police are in a state of increased readiness. The security of the editorial offices of all large media in the French capital has been strengthened, the Radio correspondent Freedom Natalya Kanevskaya reports.
