(Reunion) Two police officers have been shot and wounded
during the arrest of a suspected radical Islamist on the French island of
Reunion. The 20 year old gunman, a recent convert to Islam was described as a
"dangerous individual" and was detained with his mother. He was
wanted for "glorifying terrorism," the Interior Ministry said, adding
that he "refused to be arrested and fired a rifle at police". Weapons
and ingredients for making explosives were later found at their apartment in
the town of Saint Benoit.
