A gunman opened fire on French police, Thursday on Paris’ best-known boulevard, killing one officer and wounding two others before being fatally shot himself , Reuters reported.

The Islamic State, through its affiliated Amaq news agency, quickly claimed responsibility for the attack.

The French Interior Ministry said one police officer was killed on the spot and two others were “seriously wounded” when the gunman opened fire on a police car. The ministry said security forces gunned down the attacker as he tried to flee the scene on foot.
