Bataclan attack – footage filmed by Le Monde journalist

Writing in Le Monde the day after the attack Psenny said he was struck by a bullet when he went down to the ground floor of his building to offer refuge to those injured or fleeing.

Dramatic footage shot by a French journalist shows the partygoers at the nightclub running out of three emergency exits and into an alley.

Reports confirm more than 80 people were massacred in the hall when callous attackers seized hostages during a deadly night of terror across the capital.

Mr Psenny was later shot in the arm as he attempted to help people shelter in his apartment, and is being treated at the Georges-Pompidou hospital, reported the Guardian.

The footage was captured by a journalist for the French newspaper Le Monde.

He said he was watching TV when he heard loud bangs which he assumed were firecrackers. I understood that there was something serious.

“A woman was clinging to the Bataclan window on the second floor”.

“I think the shooter was at the Bataclan window”. I thought of the images of September 11.

Mr Psenny stopped filming and went down to the street to aid the injured.

President Francois Hollande blamed the attacks on ISIS, calling it “an act of war” by the militants.

According to reports, more than 120 died in the attack at the concert hall, where the American band Eagles of Death Metal was playing. The shootings took place around the same time as other armed assaults and bombings in and around Paris. Gunfire could be heard from inside the theater late Friday.

Eight terrorists are dead following the attacks on six locations in Paris and nearby areas, prosecutor’s spokeswoman Agnès Thibault-Lecuivre said.
