The same day, French police arrested a man in his 60s who is reported to have opened fire at shoppers at a French supermarket, wounding two people.
The shooter fled the scene and holed up in his apartment. He was known to the police, who described the incident as a 'private dispute' which does not appear to be terror-related.
