At least three people died and 13 were wounded today in Strasbourg. All victims are men, the mayor of Strasbourg, Roland Ries, said. No children were hurt, Euronews reports.
At around 8 pm CET a single gunman opened fire on a street near Strasbourg's Christmas market.
Witnesses reported hearing soldiers from a routine anti-terrorism patrol saying they had been shot at. The AFP news agency reported that the military had returned fire and injured the man before he fled.
Two police sources told Reuters the attacker had been identified as a 29-year old man. His motive for the attack was not known, said the Paris prosecutor.
