## Reported figures

- 1 injured
- 2 arrests

## Coverage angles

The three sides cover the same Toulouse facts, but the left favors victim testimonies and the account of suspect 'Chico', the center focuses on the material toll of the October 25 shootings, and the right highlights the condemnation of 'Chico' and the shooting injury in the Reynerie.

**Common ground**

- A man was shot in the face in the Reynerie
- Shootings took place in Toulouse on the evening of October 25, without casualties, but homes were hit
- 'Chico', 27, admits involvement in a dozen criminal cases
- People were arrested with handguns and a Kalashnikov after shootings in Bellefontaine

**Differences**

- The left highlights 'Chico's' direct testimony and the words of traumatized residents, an angle absent from the center and right
- The right explicitly mentions the four-year prison sentence for the Mirail shootings, not taken up in the left and center excerpts
- The center does not mention the Bellefontaine arrests or 'Chico's' profile, present on the left and right
