A car has crashed into a police van before bursting into flames around the Champs Élysées area of central Paris just hours after a terror attack attempt in London.
The driver died in the incident. Police found a Kalashnikov rifle, handguns and gas bottles in the car.
Police say the situation is now under control, and neither law enforcement officers nor civilians were injured.
France is under a state of emergency after being hit by a wave of deadly terror attacks in recent years.
