The partner of one of the Charlie Hebdo staff members currently receiving medical treatment for a gunshot wound has spoken to Fairfax media.

The Guardian reports that Maisie Dubosarsky, 27, had been emailing her boyfriend, Simon Fieschi, 31, just minutes before the attack.

Fieschi was shot in the shoulder, according to Fairfax, and is being kept in an induced coma.

"He liked to say that his job was to troll people,' Dubosarsky told Fairfax. "They're very cool people [at Charlie Hebdo] and they tell people to get lost."They got threats all the time but ' none of them thought that their lives were under threat. They were out in public all the time."
