9:40 p.m.: A black Volkswagen pulled up in front of the Bataclan concert hall, which is packed with people attending a show by the California band Eagles of Death Metal.

Three gunmen entered the hall and started shooting into the crowd at random. The attack and a standoff lasted about three hours.

After the carnage, survivors talked of chaos and piles of bodies inside the theater.
