  • Story Text: A waiter was shot dead by a dissatisfied client in a restaurant in the Paris suburb of Noisy-le-Grand on Friday (August 16), local media reported.
    The client was unhappy that his sandwich was not prepared fast enough, local newspaper Le Parisien quoted witnesses as saying.
    The 28-year-old victim died on the spot, despite the intervention of emergency services, according to media reports.
    Police are in search of the shooter, who was presumed to be at large, Le Parisien said.
    The pizzeria had only recently opened, the newspaper reported, quoting residents who expressed sadness over the crime.
