According to the NYT, there were 7 sites of attacks (though they're only talking about the concert hall, cafe, restaurant in the 10th, and near the stadium). There are bound to be many more casualties before the night is over.

Vive la France.

PS: a friend just reported on facebook that his daughter (also a friend) was 5 blocks from the concert hall. She is safe.
