Frenchauthorities are reportedly still searching for at least one and possibly two of the killers responsible Friday night's attacks in Paris. As many as seven individuals associated with the Islamic State-led crimes are now dead, but a manhunt is currently underway for additional individuals who've managed to escape. 

"French police took seven people in for questioning on Sunday in connection with the deadly attacks, expanding an international dragnet and investigation that now stretches from the Aegean Sea to the teeming Paris suburbs," reports the The Washington Post, adding that at least one more person who was "directly involved" remains at large.

The Associated Pressreports that "[t]hree of the seven suicide bombers killed in the Paris attacks were French citizens, as was at least one of the seven other people arrested in neighboring Belgium suspected of links to the attacks."

Additionally, a separate report from the Associated Press states that a passport found near the of the body of one of the suicide bombers confirmed that the individual had "passed through a migrant corridor known for its lax controls and ease in obtaining transit documents as a flood of asylum-seekers surges toward Western Europe."

Yesterday we reported that Belgianpolice had arrested several people who had rented a vehicle seen near the Stade de France, the soccer stadium where one of the attacks took place, after it was reported that the vehicle had Belgian license plates.
