BREAKING NEWS: TERROR ATTACK IN FRANCE... AS MASK MEN OPENED FIRE ON JOURNALISTS..

 Two masked men (pictured) brandishing Kalashnikovs stormed the headquarters of French satirical magazine, Charlie Hebdo, this afternoon and opened fire on staff, killing 12 people including reporters, administrative staff and police.

According to CNN, some witnesses claimed that the attackers stalked the building for a few minutes, calling people by name before opening fire, and killing the magazine’s editor & cartoonist.

The attack is supposedly in revenge for the magazine's mockery of the Holy Prophet Mohammed. A journalist with Europe1 News said several men in black were heard shouting 'the Prophet has been avenged', after the mass shooting. Police chased the attacker but the men managed to escape in a car they hijacked. See photos after the cut...
