Belgian police make arrests over links to Paris attacks

BRUSSELS

Belgian police on Saturday arrested several people in Brussels over their alleged connection to the wave of attacks in Paris where at least 127 people were killed Friday night.

Belgian Justice Minister Koen Geens tweeted on Saturday that "multiple searches and arrests" were made, without confirming the exact number of people arrested.

A vehicle with a Belgian license plate had been seen at the Bataclan concert hall in Paris, according to witnesses.

Belgium’s public broadcaster RTBF reported that police searches were continuing in the Molenbeek district of Brussels.
