(about 1 hour later) | |
A terror attacker has been shot dead by police after he took hostages and fired at officers in the south of France. | |
Police raided the Super U shop in Trèbes early this afternoon and killed Redouane Lakdim, 26, who is said to have killed three people near Toulouse and claimed affiliation with Isis. | |
At least a dozen people were wounded in a string of assaults. | |
Investigators think the suspect hijacked a car after leaving the nearby city of Carcassonne and that one of the people in the vehicle was killed. | |
Interior minister Gérard Collomb said Lakdim then shot at a group of police officers before hiding inside the supermarket, where two more people were killed. | |
