Police are reportedly chasing a car containing four 'heavily armed men' who stormed through a motorway toll road as they headed towards Paris.

French police are said to be in pursuit of a Citroën Berlingo after it forced its way through a toll on the A10 in the Ablis area of Yvelines in north-west France.

The town is approximately 40 miles from the centre of Paris and the incident comes as police remain on high alert following a string of deadly terror attacks across the French capital last night.

Earlier today it was reported that armed officers and a police helicopter were scrambled to the Bagnolet area of Paris following reports of gunfire and explosions.

Residents were reportedly told to stay indoors but local authorities later confirmed the 'explosions' were the result of fireworks being let off at a wedding celebration.

France remains on high alert after a string of barbaric terror attacks were carried out across the French capital, leaving at least 127 people dead.

ISIS has claimed responsibility for the wave of terror attacks, which saw gunman Kalashnikov-wielding fanatics storm four restaurants and a packed concert in the city centre and two suicide bombers blow themselves up outside the State de France sports stadium.

At least eight suspected terrorists were said to be killed during the sickening acts, with seven of the gunmen killing themselves.

Paris prosecutors said the authorities are still looking for any accomplices.
