BREAKING NEWS...Hostages taken in French town of Roubaix by bettercreature(m): 8:41pm On Nov 24, 2015
There is a hostage situation in the northern French town of Roubaix near the Belgian border.

Medical services in the area say several people have gunshot wounds, the Reuters news agency reported.

Early suggestions are that the gunmen fled and took refuge after being stopped at a police road block. Locals said they heard gunfire around 7pm on Tuesday evening.

The local newspaper La Voix du Nord reported automatic gunfire and “several injured”. The area around the flat at avenue Delory has been sealed off.

There are conflicting reports over whether the gunmen are in a flat or in a service station.

“An operation is under way after hostages were taken. Gunshots were fired and the neighbourhood has been cordoned off,” a police source told Reuters. “A bank director and his family may have been taken as hostages.”

It was unclear if the incident was terrorism or a robbery gone wrong.

These blood sucking demons seems to have upped their game of late. Or is it the improved security that is flushing them out.

When did France embrace Islam?

It's just that many former French colonies are Islamic so they tend to travel to France when they flee their homeland.

Don't attribute every act of violence to Islam. Nothing in the report mentioned terroists. It could just be some sickos trying to be popular.

Sometime I wonder if most people who blame all this Muslim country think deep befor making those gory comments.

You wake up see attack, you blame Islam. have you a ever take your time to find to the root of the matter, that Christian nation are behind funding whatever Muslim nations are doing or as a result of their actions?

Only those who understand the Genesis of what is happening around those affected areas would comprehend my point.

Befor 2003 the world was at peace especially with Iraq and Iran but some greedy nation escalated what you are seeing today. Of cuz this shit didn't just start today, it's been over decades.

Blame Islam at your own peril.
BTW am a Christian

Don't quote me if you have LITTLE or NO knowledge of the Genesis.
