While the reports have not been officially confirmed, the BBC is reporting that at least one gunman “opened fire at  the Cambodge restaurant” in the 11th arrondissement. A BBC reporter on the scene relayed that he or she could “see 10 people on the road either dead or seriously injured.” Le Figaro is reporting that 18 people are dead.

The AP is adding that two explosions were heard from the Stade de France, the country’s national stadium, where France was hosting Germany in a soccer match. The sounds of several exchanges of gunfire and what might have been an explosion were captured on a video on Periscope near the Bataclan club in Paris. Police were also heard directing people to flee the scene.

Agence France-Presse and others are now reporting that there is a hostage situation unfolding there.
