Four people are in custody in connection with the Paris terror attacks in January, the AP reports via unnamed officials. At least one man held is reportedly linked to Amedy Coulibaly, who was killed by security forces after he killed a policewoman and four people at a kosher supermarket. Another policewoman—this one the detained man's girlfriend—is also in custody, the AP reports. CNN, however, reports that all four of those in custody are linked to Coulibaly. (More France stories.)
