Paris magazine firebombed after poking fun at Prophet Mohammed
The Paris offices of French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo were set on fire in the early hours of Wednesday, the magazine's editor told Europe 1 radio.    

The attack took place after the magazine published an edition it said was guest-edited by the Prophet Mohammed renamed "Charia Hebdo", in a reference to Sharia law, media reported.    

"A window was broken and a Molotov cocktail was thrown inside," the magazine's editor, known only as Charb, said. "There's nothing left inside."    

A police source said the fire happened around 0000 GMT, adding that no one was injured.    

The magazine's website on Wednesday appeared to have been hacked and showed images of a mosque with the message "No god but Allah".
