Police found a copy of Adolf Hitler's 'Mein Kampf' at the home of the suspect in a deadly shooting near Paris that killed one person and wounded five, a source told AFP on Saturday. The suspect, identified as Kevin T., 39, was arrested Friday in possession of a submachine gun and tear-gas grenades. The shooting occurred in the working-class towns of Trappes and La Verriere. A 12-year-old girl was hit by bullets eight times and is in critical condition. President Emmanuel Macron called the attack a 'racist terrorist attack.' The victim was Pengo Bossio Wangi, a 26-year-old mixed martial arts fighter of African origin. The suspect's apartment also contained a Bible and a Quran and was booby-trapped with gas bottles and electrical wires connected to a timer. French anti-terror investigators have extended his detention. The shooting comes amid deep political divisions in France ahead of elections, with far-right candidate Marine Le Pen leading in polls. The victim's family called for an investigation into potential failures in monitoring the suspect.
