The shooting at the offices of Liberation

A gunman was at large in Paris on Monday evening, after a dramatic shooting spree in the French capital that began at the offices of one of the country’s most-read newspapers and ended on the iconic Champs-Elysées avenue.

POLICE ASK FOR HELP FINDING GUNMAN
Police have asked anyone who thinks they can help them identify the man behind Monday's shooting spree in Paris to contact them at the toll-free number 0800-00-27-08or the email address pppj-appelatemoins@interieur.gouv.fr

Police said they were searching for a lone gunman believed to be behind attacks in the lobby of daily Libération, outside the offices of the Société Générale bank in the financial hub of La Défense, and at least one other incident at French BFM television last week.
Prosecutors told a press conference in Paris that the man looked European, was between 35 and 45 years old, was tall, and had salt-and-pepper hair. He had been seen wearing a long khaki-coloured coat, as well as green sports shoes with white soles.
Val says The photographic assistant who was shot in the back is critical in hospital. We do have some readers in Paris who have second homes here which is why the police appeal has been included.
