French terror suspect shot in head by police

None

A French prosecutor said that a gunman who claimed responsibility for a radical Islam-inspired killing spree was shot in the head by police.

 

Francois Molins says Mohamed Merah, a 23-year-old Frenchman of Algerian origin, filmed all three of his attacks in recent days that killed three Jewish schoolchildren, a rabbi and three paratroopers. Molins said Thursday that "everything was done to try to arrest him alive." (AP)
