Charlie Hebdo Attack: Manhunt Locks Down Town; Hostage Situation in Paris
Hundreds of armed police descended on the small town of Dammartin-en-Goele outside Paris on Friday, surrounding a printing shop where two suspects in the Charlie Hebdo magazine attack are believed to be holed up.
The suspected terrorists had told police negotiators they “want to die as martyrs,” said Yves Albarello, a member of parliament for Siene-et-Marne, the region northeast of Paris in which the town is located.
As that standoff continued, scores of police surrounded a kosher market in southeastern Paris, in the neighborhood of Porte de Vincennes, where an armed man was believed to be holding several hostages, including women and children.
