    French security forces say they have established contact with two armed brothers suspected in Wednesday’s deadly terrorist attack on the Paris headquarters of Charlie Hebdo magazine. The men, who have taken at least one hostage, are holed up in a warehouse in an industrial town northeast of Paris.

    The suspects, brothers Said and Cherif Kouachi, have reportedly told police negotiators they are prepared to die as martyrs after killing 12 people in a mass shooting at the magazine's offices.

    A manhunt for the men led to helicopters, police vans and fire vehicles converging Friday on an industrial park in Dammartin-en-Goële, a town near Charles DeGaulle international airport and about 40 kilometers northeast of Paris.

    The town is reported to be on lockdown, with the local mayor warning residents to stay indoors.
