Mohamed Abrini, a 31-year-old Belgian wanted in connection with November’s Islamic State attacks in Paris, has been arrested, according to Belgian media.
He has been on Europe’s most wanted list since being identified on CCTV video in a car with Salah al-Abdeslam, the recently arrested prime surviving suspect.
He was seen two days before the attacks in the French capital.
Belgian public broadcaster VRT reported Abrini had been detained today.
Abdeslam was arrested in Brussels two weeks ago, four days before Islamic State suicide bombers struck in the city.
