Chaos & Panic in Paris as Gunmen invade Charlie Hebdo magazine house



Two masked men (pictured above)  stormed the headquarters of French satirical magazine, Charlie Hebdo, this afternoon shouting " Allahu akbar" and opened fire on staff, killing 12 people and wounding 10, including reporters, administrative staff and two police police officers.
The attack is reportedly in revenge for the magazine's mockery of the Holy Prophet Mohammed in a cartoon.

French President François Hollande arrived the scene, few minutes after the attack where he promised to bring those responsible to justice

According to reports, some witnesses claimed that the attackers stalked the building for a few minutes, asking for people that work at the magazine by name before opening fire, and killing the mag's editor and cartoonist while they were having their editorial meeting. 


Horrible footage from the attack shows a police man begging for his life before being shot in the head at point bank range. See more photos after the cut...
