14.27 Two armed men have been reportedly spotted in the woods outside Villers-Cotterets.
Our photographer Heathcliffe O'Malley, who is on the N2 outside of Paris, near the village of Longpont, has just spoken to a man who was warned to leave a local restaurant "because the police were coming".
The restaurant owner said that he had been told "two armed men are in the woods".
Police are gathering in what looks like a farmhouse, outside the village.

(94,585 posts)One turned himself in. The two others -- brothers -- were identified from IDs left in the car and are still on the loose.

(20,277 posts)two of them are still out there. I don't think that they would kill anyone else, as they targeted that magazine specifically. But you just never know.

(20,277 posts)this goes way beyond people being offended at the magazine. Senseless killing for the sake of killing. Terrorism that may spark violence against Muslims (or people thought to be Muslim) that just want to go about their lives and hurt no one.

A young man of 18, a family member of the two suspects on suspicion of having participated in the attack, was questioned and no charges were brought against him.
