Police shot a woman in Paris after she allegedly threatened to blow herself up and made death threats on a train.<\/p>\n

Two police officers together fired eight shots, seriously injuring the woman, after stopping her at a train station, the Paris prosecutor’s office said.<\/p>\n

It marks the latest security incident in\u00a0France<\/a><\/strong>, which has been on heightened anti-terror alert since\u00a0a fatal stabbing at a school on 13 October<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The woman was taken to hospital for emergency treatment.<\/p>\n

A police investigation has been opened into the exact nature of what the woman allegedly said on the RER C suburban train, and witness testimony will be gathered, the prosecutor’s office added.<\/p>\n

The woman is facing potential charges of making death threats, of defending terrorism and of intimidating behaviour directed at police, according to the Associated Press.<\/p>\n

She was dressed in a long robe, known as an abaya, prosecutors said.<\/p>\n

French government spokesman Olivier Veran said the woman “made remarks of a rather Islamist nature” that worried other passengers.<\/p>\n

Police in Paris said officers responded after several train passengers phoned the emergency services and reported that a woman was making threats.<\/p>\n

Officers waited for the suspect at a Metro and suburban train station in eastern Paris that serves the Fran\u00e7ois Mitterrand national library.<\/p>\n

Officers fired after she refused to obey police orders, the authorities said. The train station was then evacuated.<\/p>\n

A search of the woman found she wasn’t carrying explosives, Paris police chief Laurent Nunez said.<\/p>\n

Another police probe was opened into the shooting, which is automatic when officers use firearms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
