Paris: French police were searching for gunmen Monday after three people were killed in drug-related shootings in the poor Paris suburb of Sevran over the weekend, a police source said.
Two men were shot dead near a cultural centre in the suburb northeast of the French capital early on Sunday evening, less than 48 hours after another fatal shooting nearby, according to the authorities.
The victims of Sunday's shooting were aged 35 and 31 and known for violence and drug trafficking, according to police sources.
One was shot in the head, with two suspects fleeing on foot, leaving the magazine of an automatic weapon and 18 spent bullet casings behind them.
The second man was hit six times.
