The reason for the shooting is unclear. It comes as France is under a state of emergency after deadly extremist attacks.

Newspaper La Voix du Nord and radio France Bleu Nord reported that the Lille shooting may have been a settling of scores among local criminals.
While firearms are less common in France than the U.S., gang-related shootings occur sporadically in poor French neighbourhoods.
