The attack came three days before the first round of balloting in France's tense presidential election. Security is high preceding the vote after police said they arrested two men Tuesday in what they described as a thwarted terror attack.

A witness identified only as Ines told French television station BFM that she heard a shooting and saw a man's body on the ground before police quickly evacuated the area where she works in a shop.

President Donald Trump says Thursday's fatal shooting in Paris "looks like another terrorist attack."

The attack came three days before the first round of balloting in France's presidential election.
