Gunfire has broken out during a raid in a northern Paris suburb.

One police officer is believed to have been injured during the operation in Saint-Denis, near to the Stade de France.

The raid, part of the hunt for the Paris terror attack suspects, came after the Germany vs Holland was cancelled after a suspect package was thought to have been found inside the Hannover stadium.

Local police told supporters "please go home quickly without panic" and the arena was evacuated.

Security had been heightened after Friday's terror attacks in Paris, which included a suicide bomber detonating outside the France vs Germany game at the Stade de France.

Angela Merkel, the German chancellor, had been due to attend the game.
