Gunfire from car: Shock after deadly terrorist drive in France
The horror in the country after the shooting attack near Paris is great. The French President is talking about a turning point. Meanwhile, investigators are making discoveries in the suspect's apartment and car.
French President Emmanuel Macron has described the nation as being in "mourning" after a shooting in the Paris region. A gunman opened fire with an automatic weapon from a car, killing one person and injuring five others, including a 12-year-old girl, in the community of Trappes. The suspect, a 39-year-old man with a four-time conviction record, was arrested shortly after and authorities are investigating a possible racist motive.
A makeshift explosive device was found in the suspect's home, and another person from his close family circle was also detained.
