Buffalo native in Paris speaks on terrorist attack

The terrorist attack in Paris has left residents fearful and uneasy. One resident, Elizabeth Kish describes her experience Friday night.

Elizabeth Kish is a native Buffalonian who has been living in Paris for the past six years. Kish was less than a mile away from the attack when it occurred.

The 29-year-old was out with friends Friday night and recalled seeing the ambulances rushing toward the scene.  Kish said the attack has left her afraid for her safety and full of questions.

Kish says Paris is in a state of emergency and no one can leave or enter the country. She noted there are many business closings and she believes school is canceled on Monday.
