    A 29-year-old man was fatally shot overnight in the eastern French city of Dijon, the local prosecutor said on Sunday, adding that a gangland killing was suspected.The southern Chenove district where the killing occurred was known for drug trafficking, the prosecutor, Olivier Caracotch, said in a statement.“A dozen shell casings used by an automatic weapon” were found in the street where the killing took place, he said.Nearby vehicles and a third-floor apartment were hit by some of the shots, but there were no other casualties, he said.The police criminal investigation unit determined the shooter had approached a group that included the victim around midnight, opened fire, then escaped by car, Caracotch said.The man killed lived in the city and had no police record for drug-related crimes, he said, adding that the investigation opened was for organised gang murder and criminal association.
