BOBIGNY: A customer shot a waiter dead at an eatery on the outskirts of Paris. It is reported that the customer shot dead the waiter for being slow in serving a sandwich.

The waiter’s colleagues called police after he was shot in the shoulder with a handgun in the Noisy-le-Grand suburb east of Paris on Friday night, the source said.

Attempts to revive the 28-year-old failed and he died at the scene, AFP reported.

The gunman, who a witness said lost his temper “as his sandwich wasn’t prepared quickly enough”, fled the scene.
