paris is a city on edge. the sound of fire crackers sparks scarce, including on this square where we are tonight, where officers arrive with drawn weapons. the crowd panicked. hundreds fled. a stampede of mourners. some tripping over candles. it was a similar situation outside the restaurant. that was a target on friday. dana lewis is following the event in paris. >> a get away car driven by the attackers was found in monterey. inside kalashnikov rifles. leaving one or more. later police identified three brothers. one is salah abdeslam, who lived in belgium and is now the most wanted man in europe. his brother ibrahim died in the suicide attacks. and another was arrested in brussels, he may have helped with logistics. now french police admit they stopped salah abdeslam in a car in belgium and failed to detain him. people game to the streets by the thousands to express their sorrow and understand that it was all true. dinors gunned down. bullet holes in blood. >> camilla shaken to the core, tells me she was co

this part of paris is -- it's a very busy central location in paris. steve: it does seem like a huge concern, which we've seen in previous attacks. you wait for the ambulances, first responders to show up and there could be secondary attacks. the idea there's hostages, et cetera, really complicates things going forward. i want to add andrew cuomo just tweeted, on behalf of all new yorkers, our thoughts and prayers are with those impacted by the tragic and senseless attacks in paris. we stand with you. that's the way everyone is feeling. what is the governor doing right now? is he huddling somewhere presumably with top security officials from the u.s., from >> right. there's no question that the governor is in contact with homeland security, that, you know, his -- his criminal justice team, the director of the state police coordinates the intelligence inf. i' re he's in touch with nypd. there's a constant flow of information that's going to be hitting the governor's desk in the next hour or two. because decisions may have to be made here in new york cit

in paris. i'm shepard smith in new york with continuing coverage of the terrorist attacks across paris which have left at least 40 people dead, at least 60 people injured, and the state of emergency which i just described. we expect to hear more from the french president and the french cabinet meeting as far as we know is ongoing and we have been able to get a number of new reports in. i mentioned the french website which explained what a state of emergency means there. police at bataclan say the attack is over, that they have killed two people. what happened with the rest we have no1a way to know. the hostage-taking has ended. at least 12 people have been rescued. so that is the good news of the night. we're getting word over the past hour as this hostage situation was ongoing that a number of people had escaped or actually we didn't know. a number of people had exited from this concert hall. we didn't have any idea how that was possible. now we know there were but two gunmen at least remainin

paris is grieving. so famous for its night life, but this weekend, the city of light was transformed into a city of panic. and now saturday night we went out and about, and it was eerie to see paris so still, so somber. on a normal saturday night this street is usually packed with people but tonight it's dead. the eiffel tower darkened indefinitely, deserted. the few parisians who did venture out almost seemed on a mission. >> if i live in fear they won. >> reporter: we found more people gathering quietly at the makeshift there at the place de la republique -- [ speaking french ] -- we've just heard the police tell this crowd to disperse for their own safety, it's part of the state of emergency in paris right now, emotions are running very high, they're doing it very gently but they want these people to go home. the city of light dimmed. there's no question that those lights will grow brighter but there's also a realization among parisians that this, unfortunately, is part of life in the modern world he

american airlines canceled one flight in paris. other flights are still operating for american airlines. we do understand united is operating some of their flights, but american saying all of our flights are ongoing right now. >>> in the meantime, let's go live to a freelance journalist who is live there in paris. seth, tell us where you were, what you've learned, heard and seen. >> reporter: sure. right now i'm at the airport, and flights are taking off. i was taking at a apartment in the neighborhood, directly next door to one of the restaurant shootings. it was a busy intersection. there's a mcdonald's, a couple cafes. i stepped out of the building perhaps right a of the shooting occurred and the first thing i see hunched in the gateway of my building is a man with a bloody hand. my first thought is he had gotten into a bar fight. but stepping a couple steps later, i see a large number of police officers. there are people around snapping photos, posting them on social media. it's the kind of crowd that might come around a car wr

or in the suburbs of paris. do they know that they're being radicalised? i wouldn't say so. those people are being pushed to the margins of society in france. they're being separated from the social fabric, being discriminated against, pushed away. they're very lonely, desperate and very sad. they often find a home in these notions, that we have to fight the global fight, we have to fight the holy rat fight >>> their friends, teachers, relatives, know what they're up to? >> these people are often in a not supportive social circle. as we will find out, one did grow up in a bad sir kell. the normal support network that helps up, is not there and it is not going to exist in any future radicals >>> still my question, are people hesitant to coopt with authorities if they suspect someone or are they more afraid of being the targets of attacks themselves because, after all, i think some muslims were killed in carley hebb dough. >> some of them have distrust if they're complaining. they say that this person is doing thi

and so all the players come together in paris. and it's a city that has large populations of individuals from the middle east and a lot of these problems are stemming from that area right now. so you can see this kind of an incident being planned there and executed there and tragically there appears to be today. >> ed talked to us about of course he knows boston marathon bombings what police have to do in a situation like this where there are many different things happening all across a major city and really where do you start australia try to track down the individuals? >> and compounding that is that it's dark. and in paris right now as you can tell in some of these pictures this is a late night city. so would you have a lot of people out on the streets. you would have a lot of people in restaurants in these metro stations both as we try to ensure your city is safe and try to apprehend the people responsible and we have learned in the last few minutes that there is an official terrorism investigation underway. the french preside

we begin with jim dolan in paris tonight. jim. >> reporter: well, joe, it has been a long and brutal weekend here in paris. much of what people thought of as normal when they left work friday night has changed this weekend. a darkened eiffel tower maybe the most prominent example, but so much of what people see on the streets now reminds them they are less safe than they ever imagined. a growing presence of heavily armed police and military continues to patrol the streets of paris tonight, a city whose people are suddenly distant. they ran in panic. well, it's not clear why they ran. something heard or imagined by someone. an overwhelming fear that spread in an instant. outside the famous cathedral of notre dame, bells tolled for the victims here in paris as the city continued its somber wrenching period of mourning. there would be a special mass at the cathedral, and pa rei shans lined up to hear it as did some tourists. >> it's a gregorian mass, so i'm hoping there will be chanting, which is a beautiful sound. i'm hoping th

paris is in lockdown. museums, schools and universities and government offices and even disneyland closed as investigators piece what happened. and this morning, hospitals fight to keep injured alive. and we just mentioned the city is on lockdown. there is an increased police presence than what i have seen in paris. i have spend a lot of my life here. a lot of the shops are closed. we saw cafes open. one next to us is open. a couple of restaurants and people out in the streets. we were surprised from the airport. we saw a woman running and people waiting for public transportation. we saw a little boy out with his father with a soccer ball. life is going on, but so much happening here and people are still trying to process. you can imagine that in some ways may enter into their decision if they want to go outside this morning. matt and savannah. >> it is interesting to think life is still going could. erica, thank you. >> we have one who had dinner at the restaurant near one of the attacks. margot, good mor

he was from a suburb south of paris. earlier sources close to the investigation said that a syrian passport was found outside of the soccer stadium. so two things, a passport that's been described to a dismembered remains, and a passport from syria and separately over by the concert hall one of the four gunman that died there now identified by finger prints as a french national with ties to islamic ex trimmist. do we knee anything else on the perpetrators are the ones that were killed? >> that's a good summary of what we have, and we're expecting the details to come out shortly. what i mentioned for the longest time that we have been concerned about is the return of french nationals that have travelled by the hundreds to isis controlled areas in syria and iraq. one of the major concerns for the resent years has been that the people and that the french nationals that have the french passports will return home and carry out ter rir error attacks with the skills that they have learned. >> we have been warned from the beginn
