Not sure that the industrial town and rail hub of Thionville quite counts as rural but there you are.

My English is not always perfect, I know the area where the shooting took place was not rural France and hope I did not mislead or cause everyone else in the countryside to panic. Living in the countryside you are more likely to be shot by flippin hunters than drug dealers.  |

We used to live next door to an
Al-Qaeda cell near Artigat. Not much danger of us being a target.
Hunters were another matter.
a neighbour said he dropped a cigarette. I think it more likely that he was trying to increase the grazing for his sheep. He nearly destroyed our woodland in the process. The pompiers put the fire out; - the second time that they attended the blaze.
When we moved we stayed in a house, rural, a neighbour who was nothing to do with the hunting party was killed by a stray round fired by a hunter who was several hundred metres away at the time.
