Toulouse’s deputy mayor has confirmed that the assault on school shooting suspect’s flat has begun.
The man remained barricaded in his house for over 20 hours, armed with an Uzi machine gun, Kalashnikov assault rifle and other weapons. He was identified as Mohammed Merah, a French national of Algerian descent.
He had earlier admitted to the killings and agreed to surrender “late this evening.” Police always hoped to capture him alive, so he can be brought to justice, but were ready to storm the building had he not surrendered.
