False alarm in Paris: hundreds flee memorial sites




This is the moment hundreds of people thought
their worst fears had been realised.
Mourners who had been gathered at vigils in
Paris
suddenly began running for their lives as
unexplained explosive noises sounded.
One witness said he's been on edge since Friday's
attack killed more than 130 people across
the capital.
andquot;There is an eighth guy, maybe with a gun,
I don't know.
We are all confused with what's happened on
Friday. We are very scared, that's it,andquot;
They had been gathered at Place de la Republique
and le Carillion restaurant -
one of the locations where gunmen opened fire
on Friday.
Further south in the capital, diners at a
restaurant also dispersed suddenly,
breaking glasses and turning over tables,
after they said they heard loud noises.
This turned out to be a false alarm.
It is understood the stampede was caused by
the sound of firecrackers being let off.
Large groups of police officers responded,
saying they needed to take all measures to
ensure safety.
andquot;When you see a crowd moving around a lot,
you have to act
because maybe there is somebody with a gun,
we just have to see,andquot;
Police are currently on the hunt for a man
they believe was the 8th assailant in the
Paris attacks.
