Disneyland Paris: Man arrested carrying two guns
Source: BBC
French police have arrested a man carrying two guns at an entrance to a hotel at Disneyland Paris.
The man, reportedly aged 28 and not known to security services, was also discovered with a copy of the Koran and a box of ammunition, police said.
He was stopped by security teams while entering the hotel at the much-visited theme park.
France remains in a state of emergency following the deadly Islamist attacks in Paris in November last year.

(2,103 posts)Anti-terrorist officers were today interviewing a man found with two automatic weapons at Disneyland Paris.
The 28-year-old, who has not been named, was initially stopped by security guards as he tried to get into the New York hotel at the theme park.
X-rays then revealed that he had the two guns in his rucksack, together with a box of 20 bullets and a small copy of the Koran translated into French.
He was with a woman, either his wife or girlfriend, who is thought to have escaped just as she was about to be seized by security guards.
She has now been arrested and is talking to police.

(27,464 posts)our gun problem is bigger than people are willing to admit. The gun problem aside, do you have any suggestions with respect to dealing with the problem of religious radicals?

(6,241 posts)already. Expand the penalties to include deportation. Get a report that people at a mosque are saying XYZ, get a recording of it, and you boot them from the country. Those guys holding the "behead those that insult Islam" signs get put on planes or ships or catapults or whatever the hell is around. No appeals. The offender has the option of leaving his non-offending family behind, or taking them with him.
The person that just decides to shoot up a Disneyland one day are rare. There is usually some kind of "Europe your 9/11 will come" kind of speech ahead of time.
There's no reason that kind of crap should be tolerated.

...
Disneyland Paris said the weapons had been discovered during a security check. They then contacted police who arrested the man without a struggle.
...
He co-manages a brassiere in the Paris, a source close to the investigation told AFP news agency, where staff were incredulous at news of the arrest.
