Alleged Jewish gangster shot 5 times in Paris

A man described by French police as a Jewish gangster was shot five times and severely wounded in Paris.

The incident occurred Sunday evening in the upscale 16th district of Paris, which features the Eiffel Tower. The victim, identified as Dominique Guez, sustained at least one headshot from a drive-by shooting as he was parking his scooter on Flandrin Boulevard near the Arc de Triomph in eastern Paris, according to the RTL radio and television broadcaster.

Two unidentified men opened fire on Guez from a moving car.

Quoting police sources, the Le Parisien weekly reports the victim is “a member of the Jewish crime scene” with multiple convictions for fraud.
