Paris (CNN)— Scores of people are reported dead after what are being called terror attacks across Paris. Police early Saturday freed hostages at a concert hall where more than 100 people may have died. The attacks seemed to be planned to hit areas where many people would be gathered on a Friday night, officials said. CNN will update this story as information comes in:

As many as 118 people were killed in the attacks in Paris, Deputy Mayor Patrick Klugman said Saturday.
• CNN affiliate BFMTV reports that SWAT units stormed the Bataclan concert hall and that the siege is over. Two attackers were killed, a police union said. Police have brought out at least 100 hostages from the concert hall, a CNN producer said; some appear to be wounded. President Francois Hollande was on his way to the concert venue, according to French news agency AFP.

One of the explosions at the Stade de France outside Paris appears to be a suicide bombing, a Western intelligence source receiving direct intelligence from the scene told CNN's Deb Feyerick. A dismembered body, consistent with the aftermath of an explosion from that type of device, was found at the scene, the source said. Watch: Explosion heard at Paris soccer game
• People were inviting people off the streets into their apartments, reports Philip Crowther, Washington correspondent for France 24. They are following Hollande's direction to stay indoors.
• Traffic on several subway lines has been interrupted following the attacks, the Paris police prefecture reported.
• At this hour, there is no credible or specific threat in the United States, according to a U.S. government official.
• Hollande, in an address to the nation, said he had declared a state of emergency, meaning borders will be closed. "We have to show compassion and solidarity and we also have to show unity and keep our cool. France must be strong and great," he said.

Terrorists everywhere. May God save human race from these people

Mehn! We all know who they are, the religious extremist.

This is disheartening! Peace just seems to be elusive in our present world. I pray that GOD will comfort and grant strength to the victims of terrorism in Paris, here in Nigeria and across the globe.

few months ago, Francois Hollande sent some armed drones to wipe out extremists.. now they be retaliated.

I thought it's only Africa and warzone nations aren't secured.. I don't know France could be this insecure..

I guess Russia is their next target but this time around it will be during the World Cup tournament.

Peace
