TRAPPES, France (AFP) — French anti-terror investigators said Saturday they have extended the detention of a man suspected of opening fire in the Paris suburbs a day earlier, killing one person and wounding five.
The 39-year-old suspect, partly identified as Kevin T., was arrested Friday in possession of a submachine gun and tear-gas grenades in his car, after the victims were shot as a vehicle drove through the working-class town of Trappes and neighbouring La Verriere.
One of those wounded was a 12-year-old girl who was hit by bullets eight times and is in critical condition, authorities said.
