AT least two people have been shot dead and a further two injured after a gunman opened fire near a stadium in France.
Four men were reportedly targeted with a hail of bullets close to the Stade de La Duchere shortly before 12.30am.
Police believe it may have been an incident between two rival gangs.
Two people were killed and another two were rushed to hospital.
According to local reports, one of the two hurt is in a critical condition.
The other is understood to have been shot in the leg.
Emergency services were rushed to the scene in Avenue Andrei Sakharov in the La Duchere district, but it’s unclear whether any arrests have been made.
It comes just weeks after four people were injured in a shooting incident in the district.
A gunman fired at a group having a barbecue before fleeing the scene, reports LyonMag.
