Paris Attack Suspects "Located", Liberation Reports

Update 2: Liberation provides the following statement from Bernard Cazeneuve, Minister of the Interior, manages to Liberation

"They are formatted to start over. My role is that the French are protected. When I see the videos on the Internet, there are enough of savagery and barbarism to ensure that the investigation go fast and you are protected, you journalists as police officers in uniform. I asked this morning that there are additional ways to protect all the press."

Update: Liberation now backtracking on the arrest report, saying this instead:

The Interior Ministry denied the arrest of the suspects, but police sources, it was confirmed their location and identification.

Having managed to escape after their murderous rampage at the Charlie Hebdo offices, some were skeptical if the police would be able to catch the shooting suspects, who were identified minutes ago, alive. Moments ago French newspaper Liberation reported that the three suspects have indeed been arrested:

And google translated:

The three suspects have been identified. This is Said K., born in 1980 in Paris, Sherif K., born in 1982 in Paris and Hamyd M., born in 1996. All three are from Gennevilliers (Hauts-de-Seine). They were reportedly arrested but no official confirmation comes in time for the Interior Ministry.

Note there is no official confirmation from French authorities yet so it is not exactly clear where Liberation is getting its information.

While we wait for confirmation, here is LIberation's account of the suspect's getaway (again google-translated):

CHASE IN PARIS

"The gunmen reportedly shouted Allah akbar and said they would avenge the Prophet," the prosecutor said. On leaving the premises, the attackers fall on a police car standing out in the street. They open again before the fire back aboard their Citroen. A chase begins. They borrow the green alley, a street perpendicular to the seat of Charlie Hebdo. Cross another patrol police, mountain biking. New shots, victimless. Arrived on the Boulevard Richard-Lenoir, new shooting: police officer, aged thirty years and attached to the Commission of eleventh district, was hit and killed in cold blood on the ground.

They resume their car heading to the northeast of Paris. They hit a pedestrian at Colonel Fabien in the nineteenth arrondissement. Their flight is interrupted at the intersection between the Sadi-Lecointe and the Rue de Meaux in the nineteenth arrondissement. CW black Citroën registered XV 518 fits into a stud, rear window and broken driver's window. Men out of the vehicle, leaving a Kalashnikov magazine full of ammunition. Then they shine a motorist and steal his gray Clio. Shortly before noon, the police lost their footsteps. The gates of Paris were immediately blocked to prevent their escape.
