This video captures the terrifying shoot-out between French police officers and machine gun-wielding gunmen outside the Paris concert hall where more than 80 people were slaughtered.
The footage, taken by photographer Patrick Zachmann, shows armed officers engaging in a gunfight with terrorists, who are not seen on camera, around the corner from the Bataclan theatre.
In one dramatic moment, an officer ushers a civilian woman across the path of the gunfire to safety on the other side of the road. Sparks fly as bullets ricochet off parked cars.
Earlier, jihadists shouting ‘Allahu Akbar’ – God is great – had started indiscriminately killing those who had crammed into the venue to see US band Eagles of Death Metal.
