A police officer has been seriously injured in a second shooting in Paris.

Gunmen are said to have escaped into the Metro after automatic gunfire was reported at Montrouge.

A suspect has reportedly been arrested after the shootout.

One of two municipal policemen was badly hurt, a police source told Reuters.

The source added that it was unclear if there is any link at this stage to the Charlie Hebdo attack, in which three gunmen targeted the offices of the French satirical magazine, killing 12 people.

ITELE television station said that two police were lying on the ground after the second shooting.
