BREAKING: Knifeman wearing 'explosives' shot dead in Paris on anniversary of Hebdo attack

A knifeman wearing a suspected explosive vest has been shot dead in Paris after storming into a police station and shouting "Allahu Akbar" or God is Great.

The body of the man was examined by a robot as explosive experts scrambled to the police station in Rue de la Goutte d’Or, the 18th district of the city.

A bomb squad is still on site as the man was seen with wires poking out from his clothes, say police sources.
