Gunmen have opened fire in several places in the French capital, Paris, causing several casualties, French media report.

At least one man opened fire with an automatic gun at the Cambodge restaurant in the 11th district.

Liberation newspaper reports four deaths. It also reports shootings near the Bataclan arts centre.

An explosion is also reported to have targeted a bar near Stade de France, where France were hosting Germany.

Reports say President Francois Hollande was watching the match and has been evacuated.

A BBC journalist at the Cambodge restaurant says he can see 10 people on the road either dead or seriously injured.

He says police have now arrived.

Shooting is said to be continuing.

I saw one report of a suicide bomber, I know there will be some inaccurate reporting in the beginning, but you can't help but think isis or a related group when ou hear this.

The Confederate soldier was peculiar in that he was ever ready to fight, but never ready to submit to the routine duty and discipline of the camp or the march. The soldiers were determined to be soldiers after their own notions, and do their duty, for the love of it, as they thought best. Carlton McCarthy

French authorities say that one terrorist, holding a pump shotgun in the theater cried "This is for Syria."

And now, supposedly, there's *another* shooting at a mall (not confirmed). If true, that would be the 4th location.

I hope this incident doesn't grow any bigger.

There is a weekend to settle down but this sounds like enough to make a difference in financial markets.

It will certainly find its way into the election rhetoric.

This is already bigger than the 2005 London bombings and is approaching the Madrid train bombings of 2004.

Here is what Mr. Obama had to say about isis this morning - really bad timing assuming isis really is involved in this attack

The United States has been successful in containing the momentum of ISIS, but more needs to be done to “completely decapitate” their operations, President Obama said in an exclusive interview with ABC News’ Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos.

“I don't think they're gaining strength,” the president told Stephanopoulos in an interview at the White House Thursday. “From the start our goal has been first to contain, and we have contained them. They have not gained ground in Iraq. And in Syria it -- they'll come in, they'll leave.

No president can handle this until the west grows a spine. The only people who can end this are the much vaunted moderate Muslims.

Wonder what the response to this would have been in Paris circa 1870?

The president of France has closed the borders.

Will Mr. Trump, or will he not, point out that was his idea all along?
