The two men suspected of attacking a newspaper in Paris have stolen a car and reportedly have several hostages.
A car chase is under way on the N2 motorway, and police sources say shots have been fired.
The car is now on the outskirts of Paris - close to Charles de Gaulle airport - and several helicopters are reportedly hovering overhead.
Sky's Ian Woods says the police focus now appears to have turned to an industrial building near to the airport.
Two people with gunshot wounds have been taken to hospital in Meaux.

Never again.
I would expect a simultaneous operation occurring at the Kosher grocery store... right about now.
Well, prayers up for the hostages in the kosher supermarket now.
France disarmed its’ citizens and mad them sitting ducks to terrorists with AK 47’s. Then they did not arm their Police who could have descended upon the scene and foiled the getaway.
This crap today is just a show of toughness like “we’re after the terrorists” when the critical defenses have already been breached.
Never give up your guns people.
