Summary at a Glance

Six people were also seriously injured in the chilling attack on Wednesday night in Grenoble's Olympic Village and two were left in a critical condition.

A GRENADE was thrown into a packed bar by a man with an assault rifle in France leaving 12 injured before the gunman fled.

Those injured were left covered in blood in the parking lot underneath survival blankets in the cold winter night as emergency services treated them.

Mayor of Grenoble, Eric Piolle, said he condemned the "criminal act of unprecedented violence that occurred in a business in the Olympic Village district".

The grenade's explosion shattered the windows at the front of the bar and sent glass flying across the establishment as people were drinking.
