REUTERS/Jacky Naegelen Police officers secure access to a residential building during investigations in the eastern French city of Reims January 8, 2015.Two people are in critical condition after a shooting in the south of Paris Thursday morning, AFP reports.
So far, no connection has been established between this morning's shooting and yesterday's terrorist attack at the Paris office of satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo, which left 12 dead.
The victims in today's shooting are a policewoman and a city employee.
France's interior minister Bernard Cazeneuve said the suspect is on the run, according to Le Monde. It was earlier reported that the gunman had been detained.
There are also reports of an explosion that happened at kebab shot near a mosque in Lyon, but it hasn't been confirmed if there's a link to Wednesday's Paris assault.
Police are still hunting for two suspects - brothers Said and Cherif Kouachi - who escaped by car after killing 12 people, including Charlie Hebdo's editor-in-chief, three cartoonists, and two police officers.
A third suspect, 18-year-old Hamyd Mourad, voluntarily turned himself over to authorities Thursday morning.
