Four people have been arrested in the Paris area on suspicion of planning a terror attack, French media report.
Three men and a woman were detained at dawn in the 18th arrondissement of Paris and the nearby northern suburb of Seine-Saint-Denis, TF1 and BFMTV say.
They are reported to have been known to anti-terrorism officials who feared they were becoming a serious threat.
The French capital remains on high alert after the jihadist attacks in November which killed 130 people.
More than 100 people were wounded in a series of shootings and suicide bombings that targeted a concert hall, major stadium, restaurants and bars over the course of a Friday evening.
The Daily News has details:
Four people suspected of plotting an "imminent" terror attack in central Paris were arrested Wednesday, according to reports.
The suspects — three men and one woman — were known to authorities and have links to radical Islam, TV station TF1 reports. They were arrested in dawn raids.
Two brothers originally from Turkey were among those arrested, according to the report.
Police found an assault rifle cartridge, USB sticks and a safe during the search.
