Two officials, speaking on condition of
anonymity, said around 15 individuals - some armed with baseball
bats and firearms - had attacked people on the video shoot,
which took place late on Tuesday in Aulnay-sous-Bois, north of
Paris.
Shots were fired as they attacked people on the set, added the
officials. Booba - whose real name is Elie Yaffa - was not
injured as he had left shortly beforehand. No arrests have been
made over the attack.
The incident was the latest in a spate of violence in the Paris
suburbs and came after a waiter was shot dead over the weekend
in Noisy-Le-Grand for not preparing a sandwich quickly enough,
while the Saint-Ouen district has seen clashes between rival
gangs over the summer.
Last year Booba and his entourage were embroiled in a fight with
a rival French rapper's gang at Paris' Orly airport.
