    Counterterrorism Raid In Brussels Sparks Gunfire And A Standoff; 1 Suspect Killed


    Updated March 15, 20168:21 PM ET


    Police killed one suspect during an anti-terror raid in Belgium thought to be linked to last November's Paris attacks.

During the operation, in which there were at least three bursts of gunfire, four officers were wounded.

    Police killed "an unidentified individual wielding a Kalashnikov — a gun used by some of the Islamic State militants in Paris," Reuters reports.

    Two bursts of gunfire were reported around 3 p.m. local time, with the third reported more than an hour later. In the assault that occurred after 6 p.m. local time, one of the suspects was "neutralized," according to Belgian site RTL. Later it was confirmed that the suspect was killed.
