Warning shots fired by one of four bandits triggered the panic. The four-man gang, carrying automatic rifles, ultimately fled with an undisclosed amount of cash from the Pasino casino in Aix-en-Provence, Southern France.

France remains in a state of emergency after Islamic jihadists killed 130 people in Paris last November.

Jean-Marc Barre of the local fire department said 15 people were evacuated with light injuries suffered in the panic.

The casino reopened Saturday.
