Five killed in northern France shooting near migrant camp

A shooting in northern France has left five people dead, including two security guards, two migrants, and another individual in a separate incident on Saturday.The attack occurred in Loon-Plage, near Dunkirk, close to a migrant camp approximately 10 kilometers from the English Channel.French media reported that a 22-year-old suspect turned himself in to authorities, confessing to the killings and admitting to an earlier murder in Wormhout, a nearby town. Police discovered three weapons in the suspect’s car, but the motive for the shootings remains unclear.Local officials described the event as a “tragedy.”Dunkirk’s mayor, Patrice Vergriete, stated that “an individual coldly murdered several people,” while Xavier Bertrand, head of the regional assembly, confirmed the fatalities on social media.Loon-Plage, known for temporary migrant settlements, is located near Calais and the Strait of Dover, a frequent departure point for migrants attempting to cross into the UK. Authorities have yet to determine whether the shootings occurred within the camp itself
