At least one person has been injured after a gunman opened fire at a kosher grocery store in eastern Paris on Friday, Al Jazeera reported.
The armed attacker then took at least five people hostage, French media has reported.
The attacker was suspected of being the same gunman who killed a policewoman in a shooting in Montrouge in southern Paris on Thursday.
A police source told the AFP news agency that the suspect was linked to two brothers who killed 12 people at satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo on Wednesday.
Sources close to the investigation said the shooting had happened at Porte de Vincennes in the east of Paris on Friday afternoon.
