Charlie Hebdo hunt: Police storm two hostage sites

French police have stormed two hostage sites in Paris and north of the city, with the hostage takers reported dead. Explosions were heard at a printworks warehouse in Dammartin-en-Goele, where two suspects in the Charlie Hebdo shootings had been holding one hostage. Explosions and gunfire could also be heard at a supermarket in eastern Paris, at Porte de Vincennes, where a gunman had held several hostages. Reports suggest he was linked to the Charlie Hebdo suspects. After the operation started, several hostages could be seen leaving the supermarket. The hostage at the printworks warehouse has also been freed, while a police officer at the scene was injured, AFP news agency said.
