French police carry out 150 raids, 23 people arrested

French police carry out 150 raids, 23 people arrested French police investigating the coordinated attacks on Paris carried out more than 150 raids across France overnight, arresting 23 people and placing 104 people under house arrest, according to the French Interior Minister. 

It's also been confirmed 31 weapons were discovered. 

                                                     

French Prime Minister Manuel Valls announced early Monday the “administrative searches” happened overnight local time. 

The raids come less than 12 hours after French jets began bombing targets in eastern Syria connected to ISIS, which has claimed responsibility for the attacks that left at least 129 people dead and 352 wounded. 

Seven of the people suspected of carrying out the six separate attacks Friday were killed, but the French national police Sunday released the name and photograph of an eighth suspect, announcing an international manhunt for a man described as "dangerous."
