Trapped in a small business building on Paris outskirts.

One hostage, female.

I am watching it online at the following:

Watch Fox News Channel and Fox Business Network Online | Fox News

Had to use IE because the Opera browser wouldn't display the video feed.

I've been watching it love on TV on Sky News where Fox is getting it from. Maybe there is a better feed there. It's not exactly clear what is going on at the moment except they have surrounded a building and there might be a hostage. There was apparently a gun battle earlier.

Le Figaro (main Paris news) is reporting that 'hostage negotiations' are on-going. The men are apparently trapped in a small printing office in a small business park.

The brothers hi-jacked a car again early this morning and headed back toward Paris. All of this is taking place near the Airport on the north side of Paris. Looks like this will be their last stand.

Shots have been fired and there are reports of a hostage being taken as French police close in on suspects linked to the Charlie Hebdo massacre. |BBC News

"We want to DIE as Martyrs" ...... the hope is that they don't take others with them.

Is there any connection of this printing plant to the cartoonist's work? Hope to God the hostage survives.

Another shooting by Muslim terrorist taking hostages back in Paris. Now the muslims fighting on two fronts.
Hope this leads to a major crackdown on these neanderthals.
