FRANCE-CRIME-MEDIA-SHOOTING

Magazine was also attacked in 2011

Eleven people were confirmed dead after a shooting at the office of a French satirical weekly in Paris, police said on Wednesday.

The death toll was confirmed by Xavier Castaing, head of communications for the Paris police prefecture, according to the Associated Press. Earlier, Luc Poignard, a police union official, said two attackers escaped in two vehicles after opening fire at Charlie Hebdo.

The magazine was attacked with petrol bombs in 2011, a day after saying that the Prophet Muhammed would be its “editor-in-chief” for its next issue.
