All 11 French presidential candidates have made their final pitches in the last set-piece TV encounter ahead of Sunday's first round of voting.
Both far-right leader Marine Le Pen and radical leftist Jean-Luc Melenchon voiced sharp criticism of the EU in the early part of the program.
The TV encounter was then overshadowed by a deadly shooting in central Paris.
Centrist Emmanuel Macron and center-right Francois Fillon both paid tribute to the police targeted by a gunman.....
Mr. Fillon said he was cancelling all his campaign events on Friday, the final day of the campaign.
Ms Le Pen said she was doing likewise.
Opinion polls suggest a tight race with some 30 percent of voters still undecide
