Two explosions were heard during a football match between Germany and France at the Stade de France.
The explosions prompted an evacuation of the stadium. French President Francois Hollande, who was in the stadium, was evacuated and immediately held an emergency meeting.
Fans also remained inside the stadium after the final whistle, then went on the field as news of the violence spread and the sound of wailing sirens could be heard outside. The stadium announcer told fans which exits to use, but more and more walked onto the grass, reluctant to go outside as news poured in of a shocking night of violence.
In the video, French football supporters singing "La Marseillaise" while being evacuated to safety.
Police said more than 120 people were killed in shootings and explosions around Paris, but the match was not halted.
