French anti-terrorist prosecutors on Sunday opened an investigation after weapons were found in a car parked in a Paris suburb that is home to a large Jewish population.
Three hundred people were evacuated on Saturday evening from a neighbourhood in Sarcelles, north of Paris, following reports of a suspicious vehicle, which was found to contain “a military-grade weapon”, according to the interior minister.
An investigation has been launched “on charges of forming a terrorist criminal organisation with a view to preparing crimes involving attacks on persons and the transport, possession and acquisition of weapons in connection with a terrorist enterprise,” the prosecutors said.Latest News, Breaking News & Top News Stories | The Express TribuneAFPRead More
