"I put the video on Facebook. That was my error"
The man behind the amateur video of two gunmen murdering a Paris police officer outside the Charlie Hebdo office last week says he regrets sharing the video online after it went viral.
Jordi Mir said he was “completely panicked” and shared the 42-second footage on social media out of a “stupid reflex,” he told the Associated Press in an exclusive interview published Sunday. “I was alone in my flat. I put the video on Facebook,” Mir said. “That was my error.”
