The man suspected of masterminding last
Friday's Paris attacks that killed 129 people, was
killed in the police raid north of Paris Wednesday,
investigators confirmed. Abdelhamid Abaaoud, 27,
was the second person to die in the Saint-Denis
raid, the French prosecutor's office reported
Thursday. He was identified from skin samples.
Abaaoud had previously been linked to a string of
thwarted attacks including the plot to kill
passengers on a Paris-bound high-speed train in
August, a plot that 3 young Americans helped foil.
He claimed he successfully moved back and forth
from Europe to Syria coordinating terror attacks,
and narrowly escaped a January police raid in the
Belgian city of Verviers.
“Allah blinded their vision and I was able to
leave... despite being chased after by so many
intelligence agencies," he told the ISIS magazine
Dabiq.
