Charlie Hebdo Attack: Hostage Situation Ensues
The gunmen suspected of murdering 12 people at Charlie Hebdo magazine have taken a hostage and are holed up in a small printing house in Dammartin-en-Goele, according to USA Today.
The hostage being held is believed to be a woman, a police source told Daily Mail.
A massive operation has been enacted to capture the suspects, Xavier Castaing, chief spokesman for Paris regional police said.
Helicopters, hundreds of security forced and ambulances have arrived in the town. The town is only 7 miles away from Charles de Gaulle Airport, and the airport has closed two runways.
On Jan. 7, the two suspects, Cherif Kouachi, 32, and his older brother Said, 34, stole a Peugeot car and were on the run again, a French security official told the Associated Press. Shots were fired, according to a French security official.
The two suspects spoke to police by phone and told them that are ready to die as martyrs.
Our thoughts remain with the victims and the people of Paris at this time.
