24. Uh no that is not what appears to have happened.

The police had their first big break in the case when they discovered that one of the brothers, Saïd, had left his identity card in the first car used by the gunmen, which was found abandoned Wednesday evening after a crash. The police reportedly found Molotov cocktails and jihadist banners in the car as well.

The authorities seemed to catch another break when the men robbed the gas station. The manager of the station said they were wearing masks and waving Kalashnikov assault rifles, like the ones used in the attack on the newspaper office.

As has been the pattern for many of these attacks, there is no plan for after the attack is complete. Instead there is panic and flight.
