Paris' Gare du Nord train station evacuated after security alert


Police poured into Paris' Gare du Nord station late Monday, evacuating passengers from platforms and sealing off the area for several hours in a new security scare to hit the French capital. A station employee said the operation focused on a train from Valenciennes in northern France. The busy station is the terminus of a large suburban and national rail network as well as Eurostar trains from London. Police from the special BRI intervention force started pouring into the station just after 11 p.m. and asked where the train from Valenciennes was, according to a station employee, who was not authorized to be publicly named. Within an hour, the passengers on the Valenciennes train were also being let go.
