Man Gunned Down At Orly Airport In Paris After Attempting To Take Solider’s Gun More terror in France . This time CNN is reporting that security soldiers had to gun down a man who was attempting to steal a female soldiers weapon in what is being described as a “very violent attack”. About 90 minutes prior to being killed at Orly Airport, the man had shot a police officer with a steel pellet gun and carjacked a woman in a small French suburb. The man was a known by local authorities as well as French intelligence as an armed robber and drug trafficker. Once he arrived at the airport, the man tackled a female soldier and tried to take her weapon from her, he was subsequently killed by fellow security officers. The soldier was threatened by the man but “struggled and managed to keep her weapon, fighting against her attacker on the ground,” a statement posted to Facebook by the French military read. When she managed to release herself momentarily from the attacker’s hold, her two colleagues, one of them a reservist, opened fire and killed the man, the statement said. This was the fourth attack against security forces deployed as part of France’s Operation Sentinel, Le Drian said. The national security operation was launched following the Paris terror attacks in January 2015; France has been under a state of emergency since November that year. We’re glad that no one was hurt, sounds like this guy wanted to do major damage. Image via Instagram/Shutterstock

Between Rick Ross’ backseat driving and Nicki’s beef with Remy Ma , Meek is gonna have a LOT of questions to answer when he goes on his next press run. He says he doesn’t “know how to lie”, but the question is, will he keep it classy, or go the Safaree route and slander his former Queen? Guess only time will tell, but if he unless he wants to change his name to Meek Millllllllllll and take yet another “L”, he’ll keep it clean. Image via Instagram/WENN

Rick Ross Advised Meek Mill Against Relationship With Nicki Minaj Rick Ross is doing a little Monday morning quarterbacking on Meek Mill’s failed relationship with Nicki Minaj. As we all know by now, Meek got the heat ignited with Nicki after exposing the dirty dog antics of her then-boyfriend Safaree Samuels …before deciding he too needed a little action on the side once he was in a relationship with her himself. Now, with a new song entitled “Apple of My Eye” that’s releasing tomorrow on his new ‘Rather You Than Me’ album …Rick Ross is revealing that he always had a bad vibe about Meek’s relationship with the pop/rap star, and let him know then that he might need to keep his eye out for her… “I told Meek 'I wouldn't trust Nicki'/Instead of beefing with ya dawg, you just give him some distance”—Ross https://t.co/18nYamults — Complex Music (@ComplexMusic) March 16, 2017 Meanwhile, he didn’t seem to have that same foresight for his own relationship … But we digress. Anyway, meek hinted to that same advice on his own Instagram a few days ago… Although that gem is something that Meek HAPPILY ignored for quite a while. But we guess hindsight is 20/20 for everyone after a breakup, huh? What do you think about it all? Splash/Instagram/Twitter
