Second shooting

Police are reporting a second shooting in which a policewoman and a city employee have been critically wounded after a man fired on them with an automatic rifle south of Paris.

A suspect has been detained following the incident near Porte de Chatillon.

Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuveout is on his way to the scene, but police say no link has yet been established between this shooting and the deadly magazine attack.

AFP is quoting a local official as saying that the bomb blast in eastern France was a “criminal act” and not linked to yesterday’s Charlie Hebdo attack.
