Key suspect behind the Paris attacks Salah Abdeslam has been reportedly wounded and caught following police shootout in Brussels




According to reports this evening one of the main suspects behind the Paris terrorist attacks has been shot following a shootout in the Brussels suburb of Molenbeek.

Reports in both Belgium and France say Salah Abdeslam, has been fatally wounded following a shootout with local police. The news comes as Abdeslam has been the subject of a massive manhunt ever since the attacks on 13 November, and earlier this week his fingerprints were found in a Brussels flat after a police raid.

However prosecutors have yet to confirm whether or not the terror suspect has been caught. Abdeslam is believed is to be a key suspect in organising the attacks that tragically killed 130 people in the French capital last November.
