Man shot dead after taking soldier's gun at Paris Orly Airport

Security forces at Paris Orly Airport shot dead a man who took a weapon from a soldier, the interior ministry has said.


The man fled into a shop at the airport before he was shot dead, an interior ministry spokesman told AFP news agency.

He said no people were wounded in the incident.

A bomb sweep is currently under way at the airport to make sure the dead man was not wearing an explosive belt.

Flights at both terminals at Orly have been suspended, with some flights diverted to Charles De Gaulle Airport north of Paris.

Meanwhile, the interior ministry also said a police officer was shot and injured in separate incident north of Paris during a road check.
