[Regnum] Four people are being held hostage in a restaurant in the suburbs of Paris. This was reported on November 16 by the BFMTV channel.

It is noted that a special forces unit of the Paris police arrived at the restaurant. The area of ​​the incident has been cordoned off. Rescue crews are on site.

As previously reported by the Regnum news agency, the man who took hostages in a restaurant in the suburbs of Paris announced his intention to commit suicide. According to Le Figaro, the people were taken hostage by the son of the establishment's owner. A negotiator arrived at the scene.

On September 30, on the Boulevard Saint-Germain in the center of Paris, criminals robbed the boutique of the fashion house Louis Vuitton. The robbers rammed the entrance doors of the store with a car. There were four criminals. In less than four minutes, they took half of the contents of the boutique.

The SunUK adds:
A KNIFE-wielding man arrested after taking multiple people hostage inside a pizza restaurant begged her mum for cocaine.

The man, reportedly suffering from drug addiction, was said to be holding at least four employees of Pizza L’Olivier restaurant in Issy-les-Moulineaux, Paris.

It is understood they all have now been released.

The suspect is said to be a drug addict very known to the police "for cases of narcotics, outrage, violence and rebellion", according to Le Parisien.

Authorities familiar with the situation said the man called his mother to tell her that he was "in need of cocaine".

She is then understood to have alerted the police.
