Police Kill Suspect in Paris on Charlie Hebdo anniversary

French President Francois Hollande promised to hire 5,000 more police in an "unprecedented" effort to strengthen French security, a year after the attack on Charlie Hebdo magazine by jihadists. And, as if to prove the president's point, soon after he had spoken, Paris police shot and killed a suspect who tried to break into a police station in the 18th district, in northern Paris.

French officials say the man shouted "Allahu Akbar!" outside the police station in Goutte d'Or, near Montmartre, where police shot and killed him. The suspect was waving a knife and there are reports saying he was wearing a suicide belt. A police robot used for bomb disposal checked the body in the street. The man was wearing a bomber jacket with a bag taped inside with an electric wire sticking out, but it turned out the device "contained no explosives."
