News - World: French police have arrested a man who had reportedly threatened to blow himself up at the consular section of the Iranian Embassy in the capital, Paris.
The man was reported by a French police source to have been seen entering the consulate at about 11 a.m. local time (0900 GMT) on Friday while carrying what appeared to be a grenade and explosive vest.
Police were prompted to cordon off the Iranian consulate and asked the public to avoid the area.
