Here is from Le Figaro:
L'homme, né en février 1978 à Paris, «était connu des services de renseignement», avait déclaré dans la journée Jean-Yves Le Drian, le ministre de la Défense. Il n'était pas fiché S [Sûreté de l'État] par la Direction générale de la sécurité intérieure. Il était néanmoins inscrit au fichier J des personnes recherchées par la police pour des faits de droit commun.
