The man who yesterday afternoon, armed with a knife, had taken two women hostage, one was then released in the evening, the second this morning after negotiations with the police had resumed, was arrested this morning in Paris.

"There are no injuries," said Gerald Dermanin, interior minister, on Twitter, thanking the police and special forces officers.

The manager, a 56-year-old Tunisian known for having "mental problems", asked to be put in contact with the minister but the details were not disclosed.
