  • 9 years ago
Charlie Hebdo massacre suspects Said Kouachi, 34, and Cherif Kouachi, 32, died inside a warehouse Friday after bombs went off. The hostage taken by the brothers escaped alive after the assault. Meanwhile, 15 hostages at a Paris deli escaped a second siege. Amedy Coulibaly, the gunman accused of killing a Paris cop on Thursday, stormed the kosher market Friday. A hostage held by self-proclaimed Al Qaeda jihadists Cherif and Said Kouachi escaped alive after a dramatic gunfight. Police later stormed the Hyper Cacher grocery store where 15 hostages were reportedly freed. The hostages were being held in an attempt to help the Kouachi brothers escape. The Kouachi siblings, who had vowed to “die as martyrs,” came out of a print company warehouse with guns blazing before both were killed in a town near Charles de Gaulle airport.
