One policeman has been shot dead and a second wounded in central Paris, French police say, with reports that a gunman was later killed.
The Champs Elysees, where the shooting occurred, was sealed off. Reports suggest a single gunman fired on a police patrol.
It happened as candidates made their last pitches in a TV appearance before Sunday's presidential election. An anti-terrorist investigation has been launched."On the face of it, the officers were deliberately targeted," interior ministry spokesman Pierre-Henry Brandet told France's BFMTV news channel.
