HORROR IN FRANCE – AT 9:17 A.M. ET:  There is an apparent terror incident underway in France.  The story is developing.  From Fox: 

The gunman who reportedly swore allegiance to ISIS and barricaded himself inside a supermarket in southern France, killing at least two people, reportedly demanded the release of Salah Abdeslam, one of the men behind the deadly 2015 Paris terror attacks. 

Local media reports at least 12 others are injured in the incident that French Prime Minister Edouard Philippe said "seems to be a terrorist act." 

"This is a serious situation," he said.

The situation began to unfold around 11 a.m. local time on Friday when the gunman opened fired at a group of CRS police officers who were jogging near the city of Carcassonne. One of the officers was shot in the shoulder but the injury is non-life-threatening.

The gunman then took shelter inside the supermarket in Trebes and reportedly yelled “Allahu Akbar!” which roughly translates to “God is Great!” in Arabic.

The suspect also reportedly said "he is ready to die for Syria" and demanded Abdeslam be released from custody. Abdeslam is the lone surviving member of an ISIS terror cell behind the deadly 2015 attacks in Paris that killed 130 people at a theatre, the national stadium and cafes.

COMMENT:  Were sure this is a cultural misunderstanding, probably brought about by anger over BUSH (!!!), CHENEY (!!!!!) and of course TRUMP (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!).  Nothing to see, nothing to see.

But expect more.

We'll follow it.
