A man was shot dead by police after a teacher was reportedly decapitated by an enraged parent in Paris this evening.
The shocking incident happened near a school in Conflans St Honorine, a suburb in the north of the French capital at roughly 5pm local time.
The unidentified killer then fled to the nearby town of Eragny-sur-Oise, around two miles away, where he refused to surrender.
Police shot the armed suspect multiple times, according to reports from the scene.
The attacker reportedly shouted ‘Allahu Akbar’ in the street before he was gunned down by officers.
The dead man was said to have been a school teacher who had enraged parents by displaying cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed to pupils, according to French media.
