BREAKING: 60+ Killed In Major Terrorist Attack, Hostages Reported
Terrorists struck multiple locations in Paris, France, on Friday night, killing at least 60 people and taking 100 hostages.
The BBC is reporting at least three spots in the capital city were hit, which included one man opening fire with automatic gunfire in the Petit Cambodge restaurant, shots fired near the Bataclan arts centre with reports of hostages taken there, and three explosions near the Stade de France, where France was hosting Germany in a soccer match.

French President Francois Hollande was reportedly watching the game, but was taken to a safe location following the explosions, which could clearly be heard over the noise of the crowd.
The Daily Beast reports that as many as six gunmen, armed with AK-47s and grenades, were involved in the attacks. Some 100 people are believed to be held hostage at the Batalcan concert hall. The AP reports that 11 people were killed during the attack at the Petit Cambodge restaurant.
