Scores killed after several shootings and explosions across central Paris

parisParis – At least 60 people have been killed and more injured after shots were fired at several locations across Paris including a restaurant.

An explosion was also heard near France’s national stadium.

Fatalities were reported following a “shootout” at a restaurant, believed to be near the Place de la Republique.

In an apparently separate incident explosions were heard from within the Stade de France, about five or six miles from the city centre, where France were playing Germany in an international football friendly.

The AP reported an explosion at a bar near the stadium, and that it was “unclear” if anybody had been hurt.
