Paris police: Terror attack in 'advanced stages' foiled - UPI.com
UPI reports: "French authorities foiled a terrorist attack in the works by raiding a suspect's home in a Paris suburb, France's interior minister said Thursday. The raid was carried out Thursday morning in the suburb of Argenteuil, just 10 miles northwest of downtown Paris, Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said during a news conference late in the day. Arrested was a suspect, he said, who was involved in the future plot that was in the 'advanced stages.'"

Six arrested in raids in Brussels - UPI.com
UPI reports: "Raids across Brussels on Thursday led to the arrests of six suspects thought to be connected to the airport and subway bombings that killed 31 people and injured more than 300, prosecutors said. Three of the arrests were made in front of the prosecutor's office in Brussels. None of the suspects were identified. Officials charges will be made on Friday. Police are still looking for one suspect from the airport bombing and another from the subway bombing. "

Comment: I hope the Brussels security services are taking notes and learning from their French counterparts.
