A man fired several shots on Friday in the 10th arrondissement of Paris, near a Kurdish cultural center. The balance sheet is at least three dead and three injured, said the Paris prosecutor, after the arrest of a 69-year-old man. Obviously, compassion is unanimous in the political class.
At least three people died on Friday morning in a gun attack in the 10th arrondissement of Paris, near a Kurdish cultural center. Three other people are injured.
“The killer probably wanted to attack strangers”
Emmanuel Macron, the head of state, denounced an odious attack against the Kurds of France and sent his thoughts to the victims and their loved ones. A frank message from the President of the Republic to mark the premeditated aspect of the attack.
Came quickly on the spot to support the police, Gérald Darmanin was more measured on the motivations of the killer “The killer obviously wanted to attack foreigners, remains to be seen if it was especially on the Kurds but there is no element to know it,” said the Minister of the Interior.
The left warns “of the danger of the far right”
The opposition also took up the case. Marine Le Pen thanked the police for their efficiency. Finally, on the left, we quickly designate the culprit. “The racist far-right must be neutralized”, signs Mathilde Panot. Among the socialists, Olivier Faure calls for an awakening “in the face of the danger of the far right”.
But no elements of the investigation prove them right for the moment.
