BREAKING: UP TO AT LEAST 6 TERROR SUSPECTS MAY STILL BE AT LARGE...DEVELOPING... As many as six members of a terrorist cell involved in the Paris attacks may still be at large, including a man who was seen driving a car registered to the widow of one of the gunmen, police officials said Monday. Two French police officials told The Associated Press that authorities were searching the Paris area for the Mini Cooper registered to Hayat Boumeddiene, the widow of Amedy Coulibaly. Turkish officials say she is now in Syria. The French police officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to discuss details of the investigation with the news media. France deployed 10,000 troops to protect sensitive sites — including Jewish schools and neighborhoods — in the wake of the attacks that killed 17 people last week. Brothers Cherif and Said Kouachi, as well as Coulibaly, their friend who claimed ties to Islamic extremists in the Middle East, died Friday in clashes with police. Prime Minister Manuel Valls said the manhunt is urgent because the threat is still present after the attacks that began Wednesday with 12 people killed at the satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo by gunmen the police identified as the Kouachi brothers. Authorities said Coulibaly killed a policewoman Thursday and then killed four people at a kosher supermarket Friday before all three attackers were slain in two nearly simultaneous clashes with security forces around Paris. Paris Marais district — one of the countrys oldest Jewish neighborhoods — was filled with police and soldiers by midday Monday. About 4,700 of the security forces would be assigned to protect Frances 717 Jewish schools, Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said. Stay with DNN for the latest....
