Image for French officer 'killed by Eta'

Police are searching for six other suspects

A French policeman has been shot dead near Paris after his patrol was fired upon by suspected Basque separatists. If confirmed, it would be the first killing of a French policeman by Eta.

Police officer Jean-Serge Nérin and his colleagues stopped a speeding car stolen from a BMW garage in the east Paris suburb of Dammarie-les-Lys. A police witness said at least one of the men spoke Basque.

Image for Peace 'will endure in N Ireland'

The murder  of a policeman and two soldiers in Northern Ireland will not compromise peace efforts, a leading politician has said.

Dolores Kelly, the Social Democratic and Labour Party member for the North Policing Board, said the killers would not be allowed to tear down the province's political institutions nor destroy the police process.

A police officer was shot in the head last night as he responded to an emergency call in Craigavon, County Armagh.
