PARIS Police officers fanned out in the French capital on Monday in search of the man responsible for a shooting at a newspaper headquarters that left one man gravely wounded and the city on edge.
In what may be related episodes, a man opened fire later in the morning outside the headquarters of a major bank and there were reports that an armed individual in the same area had stopped a car and forced its driver to drive him to the Champs-Élysées.
Surveillance footage from the newspaper shooting indicated that the same man who opened fire there had brandished a shotgun on Friday at the headquarters of BFMTV, a Paris-based television news channel, threatening a senior editor before fleeing, the French news media reported. ...........
The police were seeking an overweight man of perhaps 40 with a shaved head, Libération said. ........A security official at the bank described the gunman as being dressed in a big overcoat, Agence France-Presse reported.
