A terror suspect arrested Sunday was planning an attack in France and had been in contact with a presumed accomplice in Syria who ‘told him to target a church’, Paris Prosecutor François Molins said in a press conference Wednesday.
Sid Ahmed Ghlam, a 24-year-old electrical engineering student and an Algerian national, was arrested in Paris on Sunday morning after calling an ambulance. It appears that he had accidentally shot himself in the leg.
After the emergency services alerted police that they were treating a gunshot wound, Ghlam’s car was discovered by following a blood trail.
Inside the vehicle was an “arsenal” of weapons, Molins said, including handguns, bullet-proof vests and an AK-47 assault rifle.
