French shooter killed by police- Maya Friedmann

Chérif Chekatt, the man responsible for the terrorist attack at a French Christmas market on Tuesday, has been killed by the police. He had been on the run since the attack where he killed three people and injured 12 others. Interior minister Christophe Castaner said that Chekatt was spotted by three officers near where their original search took place. Chekatt began to shoot at the officers who returned the fire and killed him. This is another tragic event as a result of gun violence that has happened in the world. Chekatt had an extensive criminal record in France, Switzerland, and Germany. He was suspected to have gone radicalized during a prison sentence which explains this recent attack.
