STANDOFF IN DAMMARTIN-EN-GOELE
Two intense standoffs with gunmen are underway in and around Paris early Friday afternoon -- one involving the two brothers wanted in the Charlie Hebdo massacre and the other a hostage situation at a kosher grocery store.
One person is being held hostage in Dammartin-en-Goele, where the Kouachi brothers -- the suspects in the massacre at the offices of Charlie Hebdo -- are thought to be surrounded, France Info radio reported, citing the French Interior Ministry.
• The gunmen are surrounded, French authorities said. Yves Albarello, who is in France's parliament, said on French channel iTele that the two suspects told police by phone that they wanted to die as martyrs.
GROCERY STORE HOSTAGE SITUATION
• Dozens of schools were placed under lockdown because of the hostage situation in eastern Paris, police said.
• At least one man -- suspected to be Amedy Coulibaly, 32, one of two people wanted in Thursday's deadly shooting of a policewoman south of Paris -- is thought to be holding six people in the kosher store near Porte de Vincennes in eastern Paris, police union spokesman Romain Fabiano told CNN affiliate BFMTV.
