BREAKING: Paris police say they are responding near Notre Dame Cathedral, urge passersby to stay away.

Paris police say a security operation is under way near Notre Dame Cathedral and are urging passers-by to stay away from the area.
The police department tweeted about the operation on Tuesday afternoon but did not provide any details. A police official would not provide further information.
Large numbers of police cars filled the area on the Ile de Cite island in the River Seine in the center of Paris.
Paris is under high security after a string of Islamic extremist attacks in recent years.
I’m also seeing reports that a man attacked an officer with a hammer. He was shot twice by police. From what I’ve heard, the suspect is wounded, not dead.
